An antidote to despair about our turbulent times from a fantastic range of writers.
RADICAL HOPE is a collection of letters - to ancestors, to children five generations from now, to strangers in supermarket queues, to any and all who feel weary and discouraged - written by award-winning novelists, poets, political thinkers, and activists. Provocative and inspiring, RADICAL HOPE offers readers a kaleidoscopic view of the love and courage needed to navigate this time of upheaval, uncertainty, and fear, in view of the recent US presidential election.
