In her companion to Men Explain Things to Me, Solnit gives us another eloquent, penetrating book on feminism and patriarchy. Her short essays cover substantial territory, tracing gender boundaries to their origins, yet there is an optimism here that gives this book a propulsive energy. A must-read.
