"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.

Rezensionen
"Machtstrukturen nachzuspüren, scheint für Andrews eine Berufung zu sein. Sie schaut ganz genau hin und findet sie überall, bleibt dabei aber nie die einzig Suchende." Matea Prgomet Spex, 25.10.2018
The Word for Woman Is Wilderness is unlike any published work I have read ... rises to its own challenges in engaging intellectually as well as wholeheartedly with its questions about gender, genre and the concept of wilderness Sarah Moss Guardian"Machtstrukturen nachzuspüren, scheint für Andrews eine Berufung zu sein.
