Cultural Studies

On Certainty shatters the mainstream consensus on truth, politics, violence, the self, and our relationships. Following on from Joan Didion, Roxane Gay and Maggie Nelson, Natasha Lennard's powerful essays carve out a new path from the political to the personal. Along the way she shatters a number of liberal shibboleths on truth and justice, violence and anti-fascism, sex and suicide. Lennard has a radical perspective on the world that is both capacious and politically committed, and looks towards new political strategies that might follow from it.
