A propos de cet article

An Instant New York Times Bestseller The author of the #1 New York Times bestseller What Kind of Woman returns with a collection of feminist erasure poems created from notes she received from followers, supporters and detractors--an artform that reclaims the vitriol from online trolls and inspires readers to transform what is ugly or painful in their own lives into something beautiful.  "I'm sure you could benefit from jumping on a treadmill" "Women WANT a male leader . . . It's honest to god the basic human playbook" These are some of the thousands of messages that Kate Baer has received online. Like countless other writers--particularly women--with profiles on the internet, as Kate's online presence grew, so did the darker messages crowding her inbox. These missives from strangers have ranged from "advice" and opinions to outright harassment.  At first, these messages resulted in an immediate delete and block. Until, on a whim, Kate decided to transform the cruelty into art, using it to create fresh and intriguing poems. These pieces, along with ones made from notes of gratitude and love, as well as from the words of public figures, have become some of her most beloved work.   I Hope This Finds You Well is drawn from those works: a book of social media poetry birthed in the darkness of the internet that offers light and hope. By cleverly building on the harsh negativity and hate women often receive from online harassment--and combining it with heartwarming messages of support, gratitude, and connection, Kate Baer offers us a lesson in empowerment, showing how we too can turn bitterness into beauty.  This collection offers a powerful masterclass in creative resilience: Found Poetry: Discover how Kate Baer transforms cruel online comments, heartfelt fan mail, and even junk mail into stunning and unexpected poems. Reclaiming the Narrative: See firsthand how an artist takes the ugly, harassing words meant to silence women and turns them into a source of light and hope. Modern Poetry: A perfect next read for anyone who loves the empowering and accessible work of poets like Rupi Kaur and Amanda Lovelace. A Lesson in Empowerment: More than just a poetry collection, this book is an inspiring guide to finding beauty in bitterness and strength in the face of negativity.…
