Description
Edited by Sharon Darrow and including nearly ninety poets from across the United States and Canada, The Country in the Mirror: Poems of Protest & Witness is an urgent anthology of poems written in response to the troubles of our times. It is comprised of a variety of voices, from new writers to well-seasoned poets who are widely published and celebrated, such as Martín Espada, Nikki Grimes, Rachel Hadas, Gregory Maguire, Bianca Stone, among others, writing about a myriad of issues related to immigration, detention, loss of voice, civil rights, climate change, rising fascism, global wars, genocide, abortion, LGBTQIA+ experiences and more.
The Country in the Mirror holds a mirror to our diversity, our freedom of expression, and our collective humanity to remind us of the liberties we have as Americans, and to caution of their loss.
