Sam Beckbessinger’s Book Notes music playlist for her novel Femme Feral (opens in new tab)

"I’ve always used music as a crowbar to access emotions that I usually hide from myself. As a teenager, I remember lying in the bathtub and listening to Radiohead while dribbling water down my cheeks pretending I was crying. When I was writing Femme Feral, I listened to a lot of furious music, mostly '90s Riot Grrrl, while walking for hours around London."
