Publisher Description El libro más esperado de la gran pensadora feminista, autora de Los hombres me explican cosas: un memoir iluminador sobre su educación sentimental y social.UNO DE LOS 100 LIBROS QUE HAY QUE LEER SEGÚN TIME"Para Solnit, la esperanza no es una garantía para el mañana, sino un detonador para la acción de hoy."John BergerEn 1981, una jovencísima Rebecca Solnit se mudaba a su primer apartamento en un barrio marginal de San Francisco. En él pasaría los siguientes veinticinco años, librando feroces batallas para llevar a cabo la difícil tarea de construir su identidad y tomar la palabra en una sociedad que agrede y silencia a las mujeres.Recuerdos de mi inexistencia, su Último libro y su primer memoir, aclamado por la crítica y los lectores en Estados Unidos, marca un hito y "nos da la clave para comprender toda su obra" (The New York Times). Estas páginas narran la emocionante historia de iniciación de "una escritora Única, cuya esperanzadora voz es, ahora más que nunca, esencial" (The Guardian): "la voz de la resistencia" (The New York Times Magazine).ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONAn electric portrait of the artist as a young woman that asks how a writer finds her voice in a society that prefers women to be silentIn Recollections of My Nonexistence, Rebecca Solnit describes her formation as a writer and as a feminist in 1980s San Francisco, in an atmosphere of gender violence on the street and throughout society and the exclusion of women from cultural arenas. She tells of being poor, hopeful, and adrift in the city that became her great teacher, and of the small apartment that, when she was nineteen, became the home in which she transformed herself. She explores the forces that liberated her as a person and as a writer--books themselves; the gay community that presented a new model of what else gender, family, and joy could mean; and her eventual arrival in the spacious landscapes and overlooked conflicts of the American West.Beyond being a memoir, Solnits book is also a passionate argument: that women are not just impacted by personal experience, but by membership in a society where violence against women pervades. Looking back, she describes how she came to recognize that her own experiences of harassment and menace were inseparable from the systemic problem of who has a voice, or rather who is heard and respected and who is silenced--and how she was galvanized to use her own voice for change.
