Description

National Humanities Medalist and U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo examines the power of words and how poetry summons us toward justice and healing

'Her enduring message--that writing can be redemptive--resonates: 'To write is to make a mark in the world, to assert 'I am.'' The result is a rousing testament to the power of storytelling.'--Publishers Weekly

'Harjo writes as if the creative journey has been the destination all along.'--Kirkus Reviews

In this lyrical meditation about the why of writing poetry, Joy Harjo reflects on significant points of illumination, experience, and questioning from her fifty years as a poet. Composed of intimate vignettes that take us through the author's life journey as a youth in the late 1960s, a single mother, and a champion of Native nations, this book offers a fresh understanding of how poetry functions as an expression of purpose, spirit, community, and memory--in both the private, individual journey and as a vehicle for prophetic, public witness.

Harjo insists that the most meaningful poetry is birthed through cracks in history from what is broken and unseen. At the crossroads of this brokenness, she calls us to watch and listen for the songs of justice for all those America has denied. This is an homage to the power of words to defy erasure--to inscribe the story, again and again, of who we have been, who we are, and who we can be.

Summary: National Humanities Medalist and U. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo examines the power of words and how poetry summons us toward justice and healing Her enduring message--that writing can be. Well suited to anyone looking for an engaging and memorable read. A polished and enjoyable book that leaves a lasting impression.
