About this listen

At a time when political, environmental and social gloom can seem overpowering, this remarkable book offers a lucid, affirmative and well-argued case for hope. This exquisite work traces a history of activism and social change over the past five decades - from the fall of the Berlin Wall to the worldwide marches against the war in Iraq.

Hope in the Dark is a paean to optimism in the uncertainty of the 21st century. Tracing the footsteps of the last century's thinkers - including Woolf, Gandhi, Borges, Benjamin and Havel - Solnit conjures a timeless vision of cause and effect that will light our way through the dark and lead us to profound and effective political engagement.

As her huge fan of her, I could say nothing but what an amazing book, a book needed to a world that seems to falling deep in despair.

Hope in the Dark

It is a great book, undoubtedly. However, during the course of the years after its publication, some facts proved to be, at least, questionable. Despite that, it shows that everything is possible when we gather a mass of people - a grassroots movement, to accomplish crucial changes in human attitudes.
