NO STRAIGHT ROAD TAKES YOU THERE (HB)

Essays for uneven terrain. Highways tend to be built across the easy routes and flat places, or the landscape is cleared away, but to stick to these roads is to miss what else is out there. In her writing and activism, Rebecca Solnit has sought the pathless places in order to celebrate unpredictable consequences and embrace slowness and imperfection. She explores the climate crisis, reflections on women's rights, the fight for democracy, the trends in masculinity, and the rise of the far right in the West.
