Reflection on Men Explain Things to Me by Rebecca Solnit


               This is a book that seemed really good at first and then wasn’t as good. I thought it was gonna be great stories about her telling men that the stuff they’re explaining to her was something she knew or even wrote, but that’s only the first essay. The rest of the essays in the book are very theoretical and abstract, artsy stuff that I didn’t like as much. I learned two good facts though: nearly two-thirds of all women killed by guns are killed by their partner or ex-partner and that murder is a crime committed by men 90% of the time.
