Praise for Pages Lost and New:

“Margaret Randall’s Pages Lost and New is a bold, thoughtful collection that blends an artist’s eye for detail, a poet’s rhythm, and an activist’s call to action. In documenting the range of her lived experience in different places, languages, and social roles, Randall crafts a compelling read that is both memoir and compendium of her ideas.”
— Teresa Blankmeyer Burke, Professor of Philosophy, Gallaudet University

“Margaret Randall’s Pages Lost and New is a rebel yell testament to the power of revolutionary identity and political commitment. It is essential reading for any of us hungry for firsthand accounts of how social movements, literary ecosystems, and lesbian politics come together to challenge oppressive power structures. Randall has been on the frontlines and shares her insights for revolutionary continuity from her journeys to different leftist corners and strongholds around the world…. For me, Randall is a shining light of compañerismo. ”
— Raquel Gutiérrez, author of Brown Neon

“Margaret Randall’s intimate meditations on the machinations of power, privilege, and patriarchy offer a lens that could only be formed by a lifetime of artistic action…. Collectively, these pieces gift us an encouraging reminder—before there can be resisting feet on the ground, there must be a resisting resolve of the mind to never relinquish our self-worth.”
— Benito Aragon

“As always, Randall’s resolve to speak truth to power is evident throughout. She continues to enlighten us with the clear truth that only our own individual empowerment can lead to collective action—a clarion call in any time, but especially now.”
— Greg Smith, painter

“These pages, fervent and unstoppable in their search for truth and justice, are as unique and unapologetic as the woman who wrote them.”
— Karín Aguilar-San Juan, co-editor of The People Make the Peace: Lessons from the Vietnam Antiwar Movement
