Featuring breathtaking photographs from around the globe, this anthology delves into the personal journeys of women in outdoor adventure sports like whitewater kayaking, climbing/mountaineering, and highlining. Spanning diverse corners of the world, the collection showcases life-writing from countries including Argentina, Austria, Canada, Chile, China, Czechia, Ecuador, France, Germany, India, Italy, Jordan, Mexico, Pakistan, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, and the United States.
With Flow, editors Denisa Krásná and Alena Rainsberry aim to spotlight the often-overlooked experiences of women in "extreme" sports while employing an intersectional social lens to examine the influences of gender, race, class, and sexual identity on these pursuits. This book offers an array of perspectives from aspiring enthusiasts and seasoned professionals alike, all of whom are on various life paths.
By illuminating the intersections within these sports and finding common ground among diverse women's experiences, Flow presents adventure sports as fertile ground for a burgeoning wave of feminism.
