A Journey into the Hidden Wars of the American West
Omschrijving
"A beautiful, absorbing, tragic book. . . . Rebecca Solnit tells this story with the passion and clarity it deserves."--Larry McMurtry "Savage Dreams summons us to the campfires of resistance."--Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz "Savage Dreams is about many things: despoliation and restoration, finding a voice between contemporary noise and silence, making friends and enemies. Most of all, though, it may be about a journey into history: about how understanding history and making it are not really very different."--Greil Marcus, author of Lipstick Traces "A wonderful and important book, weaving past and present, politics and spirituality, land and history, pleasure and outrage, esthetics and activism, into a map where we as Americans find ourselves today. Intellectually challenging but beautifully written and eminently readable, Savage Dreams has both heart and teeth." --Lucy Lippard, author of Overlay: Contemporary Art and the Art of Prehistory
