I love Eula Biss. [b:Notes from No Man's Land: American Essays 5523292 Notes from No Man's Land American Essays Eula Biss https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1344313831s/5523292.jpg 5694315] is soooo important to me and so stylistically impressive. This is different–one structured narrative rather than an essay collection, but she does trace different topics related to the history of vaccinations and anti-vaccinations. Ugh she's just so SMART and so good at making connections between things. And I love that she writes openly from her perspective as a new mother, a privileged mother, who can understand the panic that anti-vaccinators feel while so, so perfectly destroying their arguments on both a medical and ethical level. Just. Great. And she's such an impressive writer. I already said that. I'm just very impressed by her. _
