Radical Hope: Letters of Love and Dissent in Dangerous Times by

full review - to come
I'd recommend. I foresee myself reading Radical Hope when I'm depressed about our current political climate in the U.S.. Favorite contributions: Mona Eltahawy, Karen Joy Fowler, Francisco Goldman, Kate Schatz. Aya De Leon, Jeff Chang,
Question for anyone who read this book: Thoughts about the unifying device - each writer addresses their letter to their children? 95% of the writers wrote to actual children. Cristina Garcia' wrote to a child she imagined 7 generations from now into the future. Did this m.o. irritate anyone? Or become a restraint on the essays that backfired, in your opinion?
