On Freedom: Four Songs of Care and Constraint

"In her 10th book, On Freedom: Four Songs of Care and Constraint, writer/philosopher Maggie Nelson explores freedom, a concept stunningly hard to define except in negative. Through four essays, this book examines how we practice freedom through art, sex, drugs and the climate. Each essay is thought-provoking and incisive, deepening the complexity and contractions inherent to our experience of freedom and, simultaneously laying them bare. I haven’t stopped thinking about One Freedom, and I am not certain I ever will."
