Recollections of My Nonexistence: A Memoir Overview

Rebecca Solnit's astounding new memoir, Recollections of My Nonexistence, tells the story not only of her personal journey towards understanding herself as a woman and a writer, but engages with the stories of others who share her experiences. This subversive and expansive collaged work looks through an artistic and a feminist lens to interrogate the patriarchal structures which seek to disappear marginal identities. Solnit engages with themes of violence, growth, freedom, and hope.
