A paradise built in hell : the extraordinary communities that arise in disaster

Author:	Rebecca Solnit
Publisher:	New York : Penguin Books, 2020. ©2009
Edition/Format:	Print book : English : This edition with a new preface by the author published 2020
Summary:	"The most startling thing about disasters, according to award-winning author Rebecca Solnit, is not merely that so many people rise to the occasion, but that they do so with joy. That joy reveals an ordinarily unmet yearning for community, purposefulness, and meaningful work that disaster often provides. A Paradise Bulit in Hell is an investigation of the moments of altruism, resourcefulness, and generosity that arise amid disaster's grief and disruption and considers their implications for everyday life. It points to a new vision of what society could become - one that is less authoritarian and fearful, more collaborative and local." -- back cover.  Read more...
