I would rate this 4.5 out of 5. Rebecca Solnit's collection of essays, and her follow-up to Men Explains Things to Me is a necessary read. And it doesn't hurt that she is intelligent and eloquent. As with any collection of essays, there is some repetition, but nothing that makes you want to skip an essay or fast forward.

I felt like this tapered off towards the end; the beginning was such a resonating call to arms, a traumatic read, and then it was just dissolving into a few columns.
Fantastic, challenging read. There are a handful of 5-star essays towards the end and I need to rewatch Giant now.
