Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything is Personal, Notes on Now is a collage of hybrid narratives that begin with the stunning events of November 2016 and challenge Stone, a longtime feminist and writer for the Village Voice, to feel good when everything is bad. Freely jumping between social commentary, criticism, memoir, and fiction, Stone reports on traveling to D.C. to bird-dog senators ahead of the hearings for Brett Kavanaugh, considers the pleasures and terrors of the #MeToo movement, reassesses the legacy of Valerie Solanas, and recalls the way that in 1968 the sense of power and hope made you feel it would always be 1968. The pieces are constructed the way dreams and films are: juxtaposing images, racing along with dolly shots, moving in for close-ups, and pulling back for a sweeping sense of time. Woven throughout are chunks from Stone's Facebook posts that read like tender and funny postcards written to everyone from a time that is unimaginable, even as it's being lived.
