"A memoir about being alive right now, looking at the news on your phone each day, and trying to live a moral life."
Curated by Emily Witt, staff writer at The New Yorker and author of Health & Safety, for Well Read. --Is it the computerization of the planetOr a loosening of my fidelity to sufferingI don’t understand the intensityI’ve hidden here but I know I despairedOf finding a physical place to keepMy tears. Now what. Seas that go turquoiseWhen you stop looking at them . . .Wrestling with the mind of war, at times shocking in its self-analysis, Wave of Blood is a furious and sincere essay, an eclipse notebook, a family chronicle, all told in the poetry of witness.
