This comment, which expressed a reality Pearson had personally witnessed as a musician and a fan, launched her into a quest to figure out just what happened--and this book recounts the tale in full.</p><p><em>PRETEND WERE DEAD:</em> <em>The Rise, Fall, and Resurrection of Women in Rock in the 90s</em> seeks to answer two big questions: First, where did all these wildly different, politically conscious, and supremely talented women in rock come from in the 1990s?
