You really have to read this as satire to fully appreciate it.mayakinsley's review against another edition
4.5
Just a fascinating book. Solanas was so insane and yet her writing also feels (in some areas) very reflective of society and the ways oppression has been perpetrated. She was a bit of a crazy genius. Unfortunately with that comes her violent energy and acts. Just a wild book to read and study - especially with its history.

I don't even know where to begin, the book seems to be disorganized and is at times hard to read. However not all of her ideas and observations are total whack. Men are often times violent, and much more often so than women.

Also, it sounds like Valerie spent time with too many trans women and got a very warped view of them. But then again, this book was written in the 60s.
It's overall.... an interesting book, gives some insight into feminism, transphobia and the struggles of the LGBTQ community in the 60s.
Read at your own risk.
