Whose Story is This?
& Cinderella Liberator by Rebecca Solnit · 2019 · 150 pages
New feminist essays for the #MeToo era from the international best-selling author of Men Explain Things to Me.
Who gets to shape the narrative of our times? The current moment is a battle royale over that foundational power, one in which women, people of color, non-straight people are telling other versions, and white people and men and particularly white men are trying to hang onto the old versions and their own centrality. In Whose Story Is This? Rebecca Solnit appraises what's emerging and why it matters and what the obstacles are.

“Her book and all of her books give us the chance to ‘know’ more and that we should want to know more. I am grateful to Rebecca for her work as ‘creative extremist’, ‘nurturer’ and ‘truth seeker’. I feel better able to see, feel and express myself because of her. We all have many different types of mothers – intellectual, creative, political – Rebecca Solnit is one of mine… and I don’t care if it antagonizes anyone to say so.”↗
