bluestarfish 's review for:

Men Explain Things to Me by Rebecca Solnit
5.0

I am very happy to have Rebecca Solnit explain anything she wants to me... I had read the title essay of this collection before, and one of the other ones too, but it was a joy to read it again and to have some new ones to read too. Even if you don't fancy reading this whole (slim) book I'd recommend reading 'Men Explain Things to Me' (freely available online) as it is excellent! The careful articulation of words to bring in new thought is such an important job and we are all lucky Rebecca Solnit is making this her work. [2015]

Most certainly time for a re-read. Still pertinent and Solnit is still doing a great deal to help us look at the world in fresh ways.
