What Is Left To Say

What Is Left to Say is Cheryl Dumesnil's love letter to a country on the brink, a state on fire, a world more broken than we ever thought possible. From climate refugees in California to imprisoned immigrants at the border, Dumesnil's poems locate the flicker of a butterfly's wings, the shimmer of light in the smoke, the beauty in a cultural and spiritual landscape hellbent on breaking us. At a time when hope feels dangerous and stupid, she reminds us of these simple, sacred truths: that we are never alone, that we must love, and keep on loving. It hurts how much I adore this book.
