Overview
Deliberately disturbing yet deeply delightful stories rooted in the challenges faced by every woman struggling to survive and even succeed in a patriarchal society.
In the decade since the publication of her radical, philosophical thriller So Much Pretty and its surprising embrace by the publishing mainstream, Cara Hoffman has refused to compromise. Her essays and short fiction locate resistance to authority and the power of imagination to change the world in some of the harshest, and most unlikely of places.
This collection includes an extended essay about political organizing and streetfights with the police in the anarchist neighborhood of Exarchia, Athens, a short story about a most unusual animal sanctuary, fierce new flash fiction, a profile of The Bread & Puppet Theater, what Kropotkin has to do with singing frogs, and of course a classically outspoken interview with the late Terry Bisson.
