Beskrivning
A collection of poems that blesses the reader with a spirit of hope, solace, and inspiration in their own seasons of adversity.The Beautiful Immunity asks how we create good in an imperfect world of fallible souls. Spare and formally daring, these poems were refined through the catastrophes of wildfires, recession, and a major public health crisis through the hope of a beautiful immunity—an everlasting salve for the lost. This slender volume reads as the culmination of more than a decade’s worth of labor, documenting large-scale social, cultural, and political upheavals, as well as the moment when the word “anthropause” floated indelibly into the world’s vocabulary.

Recensioner i media

“In this ringing and consummate work, Lee reconnects us with Christianity’s foundations as a resistance movement. In line with thinkers such as Leo Tolstoy and Martin Luther King Jr., she foregrounds its commitments to non-violent civic activism, radical inclusion, and the relentless pursuit of peace, which connect it to so many other faith systems across the globe that are similarly dedicated to enabling hope to overcome greed. She then turns this lens on today’s crucial issues, particularly climate change and its explosive effects, demonstrating that adamant hope can translate into vigorous action through language applied in the most incisive and persuasive ways.”
