A review by mdarceyhall
The Mother of All Questions by Rebecca Solnit

4.0

If Didion is a spoon dolloping cream on a peach, Solnit is the knife slicing through and exposing the bitter flesh. While I enjoy Didion’s sepia-hued narratives, Solnit never fails to impress me with her sharp cultural criticism that takes no prisoners and yet never veers into pessimism or hopelessness.
