Unspeakable Things: Sex, Lies and Revolution by Laurie Penny

3.0

Overall I enjoyed reading Unspeakable Things. It did stoke my rage quite a bit, but I’m ok with that. Penny’s writing is smart and acerbic, and I found her arguments well constructed. My main criticism is that Penny writes from and for privileged, middle-class, white vantage points, leaving out entire intersections that matter a great deal, and are subjected to far worse under the capitalist patriarchy than white women.
