WILL STONE fact-checks the colourful life of Ozzy Osbourne
Being Numerous: Essays on Non-fascist Life by Natasha Lennard
Flawed arguments for living a life free from authoritarian oppression
THIS is a somewhat puzzling book, not helped by its title.
What fascism is, and how it develops, is never made clear and references to the work of Michel Foucault and Wilhelm Reich provide little assistance. By its conclusion, I was as unsure of what “living a non-fascist life” means as I was at the start.
