Rebecca Solnit is an incisive voice on topics ranging from feminism to the environment, western and indigenous history to literary criticism, and from hope and disaster to popular power and social change. She has published twenty books, including three collections of essays–Hope in the Dark, Men Explain Things to Me, and The Mother of All Questions–as well as a trilogy of atlases of American cities and a work of literary criticism on Eadweard Muybridge. Her most recent work, Call Them By Their True Names: American Crises (and Essays), brings a measure of light and hope to the sobering topics of police brutality, lack of gun regulation, and other acts of violence in America. Solnit is a columnist at Harper’s and a frequent contributor to The Guardian.
