Rebecca Solnit

No Straight Road Takes You There: Essays for Uneven Terrain

 – Venue 1

From social change and hope to the climate crisis and masculinity, there’s not a subject Rebecca Solnit can’t turn her mind to.

She discusses No Straight Road Takes You There, a collection of essays revolving around the power of activism and covering subjects including women's rights, the fight for democracy, the trends in masculinity, and the rise of the far right in the West.

Solnit is the author of more than 20 books, including Recollections of My Non-Existence, which was longlisted for the 2021 Orwell Prize for Political Writing and shortlisted for the 2021 James Tait Black Award, and the collection of essays Men Explain Things to Me. She writes regularly for the Guardian, the London Review of Books and the Los Angeles Times.

Price: £15.00
