95bFM's Loose Reads: Recollections of my Nonexistence by Rebecca Solnit / by Time Out Bookstore

Recollections of my Nonexistence is Rebecca’s Solnit’s memoir - giving background and context to her body of work - 20 books on feminism, place, culture, ‘wandering and walking, hope and disaster.’

Solnit writes about reading here:
‘Sometimes when you are devastated you want not a reprieve but a mirror of your condition or a reminder that you are not alone in it. Other times it is not the propaganda or the political art that helps you face a crisis but whatever gives you respite from it.’

Solnit never feels like she’s speaking above you as a reader. You’ll underline and bookmark the many powerful lines in this book. It’s an intelligent and thoughtful read for both new readers and established fans.
