- Summary:
- "Our hyper-informed digital era of climate catastrophe, historically unmatched migration, and genocide, confronts us with a terrible conundrum: The pain and struggles of others are widely accessible, yet hostility and loneliness persevere. It often seems that we are on the edge of ruin, and hope, though necessary, is elusive. How can we reconcile ourselves to the world we have made? In To See Beyond, Anna Badkhen probes the ways we counter despair as she imagines the language we need for survival. Through these stories of everyday encounters with remarkable people in West Africa, North America, the Middle East, and Europe, Badkhen puzzles out how we balance delight and grief, joy and hurt, and choose to embrace life"-- Provided by publisher.
