studiouslaura discovered 3 months ago- From the article: We are a country at war, but the costs are being disproportionately borne by a very few. This little book of poems offers a corrective in that it reminds us that war is always and exquisitely personal for those whose lives are intimately touched. I have become convinced that only empathy, and the passion and activism it motivates, will rescue our politics from the Orwellian distortions, lapel pins, bumper stickers and self-righteous posturing that drown out the voices of those who would speak from personal experience and with intimate authority.
