herbwyfe 's review for:
Recollections of My Nonexistence
by Rebecca Solnit
This may be my year of reading Rebecca Solnit. This is my 3rd book this year and by far, my favorite at this point. A memoir, Solnit recounts her nonexistence in a culture that doesn't value women, women writers, and women thinkers. I can't imagine there are any women who have not had at least one of the experiences she describes as men and cultural forces attempt to ignore, deny, disregard, argue, and explain things. She extends through the intersectionality of nonexistence and degradation.
An important book to read as we watch women, queers, and people of color continue to lose their voices, their presence, their influence, and their rights in a culture dominated by white men.
