Rebecca Solnit | University of California Press 2010
Across an urban grid of just seven by seven miles, Solnit finds seemingly unlimited landmarks and treasures -- butterfly habitats, queer sites, murders, World War II shipyards, blues clubs, Zen Buddhist centers. She roams the political terrain, both progressive and conservative, and details the cultural geographies of the Mission District, the culture wars of the Fillmore, the South of Market world being devoured by redevelopment, and much, much more.
