Description
Radical Intimacy by Sophie K. Rosa explores how the capitalist system shapes our intimate lives and what we can do about it. The book examines topics such as self-care, romance, sex, family, home, death, and friendship, looking at the histories and modern realities of these forms of intimacy. Rosa interrogates common sense ideas about 'the good life', considering what our desires might look like in a better world. She asks how care, connection, and community can support our struggles for liberation. Through a range of topics, from political sex scandals to climate justice, the book offers a powerful and engaging read that is both unsparing and hopeful.
