Microdosing Hope

di Lyndsay Rush (Autore)

St. Martin's Griffin, 2027

The new poetry collection from bestselling poet Lyndsay Rush (@maryoliversdrunkcousin) is an irreverent and unlikely celebration of finding hope amidst the hellscape, for fans of Kate Baer and Kate Kennedy. You’re not hallucinating, the world is definitely on fire. But what better balm than a microdose of hope straight into your veins? That’s exactly what Lyndsay Rush’s much-anticipated second collection of poetry offers to readers—cynics and idealists alike. Tackling daunting questions like—How do we keep breaking news from breaking our spirit? Are we allowed to have fun when so many are suffering? How do we hold sorrow and joy at the same time? What do we owe each other? What do we owe ourselves?—Microdosing Hope is a hilarious and timely antidote to the onslaught of apathy and despair. With titles like, “Out on a Whim”, “I Feel God in This Chili’s Tonight”, “I Was Told There’d Be a Handbasket”, and “As a Little Girl I Always Dreamed of Collaborating in Google Docs”, Rush’s new collection explores how to have hope, joy, and dare-we-say pleasure when it feels like the world is ending. True to form, Lyndsay masterfully uses wit and irreverence to contemplate tricky, hot topics ranging from parenting (during the apocalypse) and being an artist (in the age of AI) all the way to spirituality (in the end times) and aging (ungracefully). Brimming with nontoxic positivity and the belief that whimsy will sustain (and perhaps even save) us, Microdosing Hope proves that laughter is indeed the best medicine; masterfully helping readers pursue empathy, nuance, and—obvi—hope. Take two and call us in the morning.
