Puro amor. Es un libro bastante teórico pero es un buen comienzo para ciertos conceptos necesarios para adentrarse de manera más seria en el feminismo. Me encantó toda la crítica de arte que hace.
The first half was great, and then it became unbearably boring and self-referential.

I took this book with me to the barber to read while I was waiting. My barber noticed it and asked me what I thought, but before I could respond he started to expound on what he thought were the "problems" with Solnit's first essay. I sat quietly as he listed, without realising it, all the reasons that this book, and feminism in general, threaten him and his perspective on the world (i.e. the best bits).
Five stars; minus one for having to find a new barber.

Genuinely good ideas and thoughts that I agree with, but the “Welcome to Manistan” line left such an ugly, sour taste in my mouth. I know times have changed since that particular essay was written (2013 I think), but it’s so incongruent with the thoughts in the last essay when zapatistas are brought up. It’s also very interesting that marriage equality needs to be clarified that feminism paved the way to it, but nothing about what paved the way to women’s suffrage………. Not my favorite book of feminist essays, but also not the worst. I loved where Rachel Carson (Silent Spring) was brought up as an example.
si es de tus primeros libros sobre feminismo está perfecto pero no te lo recomiendo si ya llevas rato en esto, la verdad está muy básico y blanco.
me gustó que hace un análisis político sobre estados unidos en relación al resto de países con los que mayormente ha interactuado.
