The Word for Woman Is Wilderness - Abi Andrews - Bog

"Erin, a 19-year-old from middle England, is travelling to Alaska on a journey that takes her through Iceland, Greenland, and across Canada. She is making a documentary about how men are allowed to express this kind of individualism and personal freedom more than women are, based on masculinist ideas of survivalism and the shunning of society: the "Mountain Man." She plans to culminate her journey with an experiment: living in a cabin in the Alaskan wilderness, âa la Thoreau, to explore it from a feminist perspective."--Jacket flap.
