A collection of essays on feminism, from one of the most important & original public intellectuals writing today

Rebecca Solnit's essay Men Explain Things To Me has become a touchstone of the feminist movement, inspired the term 'mansplaining', and established Solnit as one of the leading feminist thinkers of our time - one who has inspired everyone from radical activists to Beyoncé Knowles. Collected here in print for the first time is the essay itself, along with the best of Solnit's feminist writings.

"Acclaimed author and Harper’s contributing editor Solnit... expounds on the way women are perceived in American culture and around the world... Sharp narratives illuminate and challenge the status quo of women's roles in the world. Slim in scope, but yet another good book by Solnit."  -  Kirkus Reviews

From rape culture to mansplaining, from French sex scandals to marriage and the nuclear family, from Virginia Woolf to colonialism, these essays are a fierce and incisive exploration of the issues that a patriarchal culture will not necessarily acknowledge as 'issues' at all. With grace and energy, and in the most exquisite and inviting of prose, Rebecca Solnit proves herself a vital leading figure of the feminist movement and a radical, humane thinker. 

"Solnit was the perfect writer to tackle the subject: Her prose style is so clear and cool that surely no one can have caricatured her as a shrieking harpy?... I finished this book and immediately wanted to buy all the author’s other works. In [the] future, I would like Rebecca Solnit to Explain Things to Me."  -  Helen Lewis, The New Republic
