About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

How can we communicate when things are so painful? How can we connect when generational differences are extreme? How do parents and teenagers - and all of us - have real conversations?


When Rowan was sixteen, she only tolerated communication from her mother in the form of Snapchat. Desperate to be closer to her daughter, Christie sent daily selfies of her face superimposed onto a chicken nugget. It took serious illness for them to finally talk – and truly listen.

Rowan's mental health struggles revealed the chasm between their generations. They started being more honest with each other than they had ever been before: discussing identity, race and gender; opening up about disordered eating and self-harm; navigating the perils of social media.

In an age of polarisation, this is how a mother and daughter find humour in the things that divide them and become more hopeful about the future of our world.

A book for all parents and teenagers going through a tough time, for friends, grandparents, teachers and healthcare professionals who want to help, its bare honesty will have you laughing – and possibly crying – out loud as it shows that you are not alone.

'Psychologically astute, totally honest and beautifully written' JULIA SAMUEL
'Incredibly brave, generous and important' CLOVER STROUD
'It made me cry, laugh and hug my daughter extra tightly' BRYONY GORDON

Critic reviews

'Full of compassion, honesty, insight and hope... This is a small book full of heart that will help parents and their teenagers understand the need for patience and empathy in a world that seems determined to divide us from each other, even from those we were born to love' (DEREK OWUSU)

'This book blew my mind and heart apart. No Filters is a generous, wild, necessary exploration of inter-generational tension, class, gender, race, mental health, neurodiversity and social media. It is also riotously, outrageously, funny. Beyond all of this, it is a love story, between Gen X and Gen Z, between mother and teenage child' (EMMA JANE UNSWORTH)
