Andrea Long Chu will become the book critic at New York magazine this month.
Her book ‘‘Females,’’ about a lost play by the woman who shot Andy Warhol,
was a finalist for a 2020 Lambda Literary Award. Her essay ‘‘On Liking Women’’
is considered essential reading in gender-studies classes across the country.
In this issue, Chu considers the politically outspoken model and influencer Emily
Ratajkowski. ‘‘I think she’s sick of coverage that either expects her to be some
emblem of empowerment or dismisses her as a pretty face,’’ Chu says. ‘‘Some of it
is just downright prurient, frankly. In this essay, I’m trying to do something else.’’

Behind the Scenes
Sasha Weiss, culture editor: ‘‘For this
issue, Andrea Long Chu writes about the
model and author Emily Ratajkowski.
Ratajkowski occupies a complicated position:
She is a beautiful woman who cannily
markets her own image, yet she has also
lamented how control of that image has been
wrested from her, sometimes violently.
She has been an object of scorn, envy and
desire, and she has now written a book
trying to describe what all that feels like.
Chu is a critic who has written incisively
about beauty and feminism as a competitive
sport, and we assigned her this article because
we thought she would bring complexity
to her analysis of Ratajkowski’s place in the
culture.’’ Photograph by Curtis Wallen.
