Sumario:This book review is about Feminisms for revolution. An anthology about 14 women who defied the limits of the left, by Laura Fernandez Cordero (Sociologist, researcher and PhD in Social Sciences). This distinguished compilation of sources aims at attracting readers since it exposes the “B side”, or the “G side as it may be considered of selected personalities, mostly women. Some of the, such as Clara Zetkin, Rosa Luxemburgo, Aleksandra Kollontay, Emma Goldman and Flora Tristan are best known by readers for gender issues, some of them were about to become known such as “Bella Otero”. This book highlights the most humanized, carnal and intimate aspect of women and some masculinities who, through writing, have left their marks in revolutionary feminism. It exhibits appealing thoughts, even if they have taken place over one or two hundred years ago. I find key elements to think and rethink the unbreakable connection between love, desire and social revolution in each research and introduction offered by the author.
