A review by annabelfenton
Unspeakable Things: Sex, Lies and Revolution by Laurie Penny

informative reflective fast-paced

4.25

Unspeakable things is a well-written, thought-provoking reflection about love, sex, and gender, and how it’s transformed under late capitalism. Penny presents her reflections in a personal and engaging way, and I found many nuggets of wisdom in the book’s pages.

I will say, though, at times it felt a bit like a feminist rant in the sort of “I’m with the cool kids” fashion.
