I Hope This Finds You Well: Poems by Kate Baer

4.0

A cutting little book of repurposed prose. Although I love the gorgeous poetry that Baer writes outside of this repurposing, it is pretty clever to see how words so often used to hurt can be changed and not merely silenced but made into something challenging and/ or uplifting of their own. I love that instead of feeling just the hurt or emotion likely caused by the initial message, these redacted poems show challenge me to filter what I hear and the frustrating messaging around me into something more bearable.
