Rene Denfeld’s non-fiction books reflect her engagement with social issues and her own varied life experiences. The New Victorians (1995) was her first published work, a controversial argument that the feminist movement had become overly focused on sexual politics at the expense of practical concerns like equal pay and workplace rights.
Her later non-fiction moved toward more personal territory. Kill the Body, the Head Will Fall (2009) draws on her time as a competitive boxer, while Ask Me Why I Hurt (2011) profiles Dr. Randy Christensen and his mobile clinic for homeless teenagers in Phoenix. All God’s Children (2007) looks at homelessness and poverty in America.
