pick“Yet it‘s the briefest of seasons, and what time there is in summer is carried forward by wind, by Boreas, god of the north wind, who, it‘s said, can blow out of two or more cheeks at once.”
I enjoyed this collection of essays, but not as much as Open Spaces.
Fresh MT trout, it‘s what‘s for dinner! 😁
Not quite #MrKnowItAll but close: this was one of my first bails of last year: the pretentiousness of the title should've been warning enough. Sheesh, what obnoxiously self-important twaddle! (I'm aware that she has many fans, and who knows maybe I'd respond differently to other of her stuff but the few pieces I read here were mindblowingly awful.)
pickShort but sweet, and contains perhaps the best example of mansplaining ever. A great intro to #feminism. Enjoyable on #audiobook too. #feministessays #feministbooks #essaycollections #essaysbywomen
pick(Same title, different book not on Litsy) Great intersectional feminist essay collection. Although slightly heavy on Scottish writers and punk music, this offers diverse stories, all of which were well written and some of which were really moving. #nastywomen #feminism #feministbooks #essaycollections #essaysbywomem
Current book + current audiobook. #feministbooks #feminism #essaysbywomen #essaycollections

Might have to add some to the TBR pile.
Reading this one in bits and pieces whenever I'm home because Mark, a former (and beloved) professor, signed my copy and I want to keep it absolutely pristine. And the contrarian in me is so excited to dive into essays against stuff! #catsoflitsy #essaycollections
