World events including the war in Ukraine and our years of Covid 19 isolation have made for an unexpected and harsh reality.



James Crews, author of 4 prize-winning collections of poetry and is the editor of the best-selling anthology, HOW TO LOVE THE WORLD - hopes to offer some lightness through poetry.



In Crews' own words: "These poems retrained me to seek out and find connection at a time when so many of us have grown more isolated..."

Featured Black writers include January Gill O'Neil, Tracy K. Smith and Cornelius Eady. Native American writers include Kimberly Blaeser, and Linda Hogan.
