Hope needs a place to call home. This big, beautiful mosaic dream of a country, in danger of turning to ash, lives here in these sun-kissed pages, in stories, plays, poems, and essays. Experience a reverence for history known and unknown, stories intimate and public, concealed and transparent, comedic and tragic, sad and joyful. Like canning fruit for a harsh winter, the work in this book preserves what is and what came before, to nourish us when days are dark. The young writers, fueled by a desire for connection and community, encourage us to persevere when tempted to bury our heads in the sand. As one of the pieces notes, we are indeed “at the end of the world searching for revival.” Let this be your guide.
