Review of 'Emma Goldman' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Very strange to read a book about Emma Goldman written by someone who is often outright contemptuous of anarchists. Gornick isn't a bad writer, technically, she just has very limited understanding of anarchism, critiques of monogamy, or the anti-authoritarian left in general. It makes for an eyebrow-raising read. Still, the author clearly has respect for Emma herself and I can appreciate some of the critiques. Just don't make this the only thing you read about Emma.
