About this book
Rebecca Solnit examines how assumptions about authority can silence women, beginning with encounters in which men explain matters they misunderstand. This essay collection connects conversational habits with broader questions of equality and harm. Other pieces consider marriage and Virginia Woolf's treatment of uncertainty, extending the discussion from everyday exchanges to cultural power.
