Îşi bat joc de tine. Te fură, te învârt pe degete, te mint. Îţi castrează legile şi-ţi râd în nas. Te fac să-ţi fie ruşine să scoţi buletinul în aeroporturile lumii. Te tratează cu dispreţ şi, când li se pare c-ar fi nevoie, cu gaze. Te duc cu preşul promisiunilor. Te cred naiv, manipulabil, neinformat. De doi ani. Săptămână de săptămână, zi de zi, ceas de ceas. Trăieşti într-o ţară aflată în pragul cleptocraţiei, într-o democratură condusă de condamnaţi penal, de impostori şi de analfabeţi.

And Buddhism justified his lifestyle: with its vision of the material world as empty and illusory, he was free to do what he wanted.

What are the politics of nature? Who owns it, where is it, what role does it play in our lives? Does it need to be tamed? Are we ourselves natural? In A Darker Wilderness, a constellation of luminary writers reflect on the significance of nature in their lived experience and on the role of nature in the lives of Black folks in the United States. Each of these essays engages with a single archival object, whether directly or obliquely, exploring stories spanning hundreds of years and thousands of miles, traveling from roots to space and finding rich Blackness everywhere.

The pieces in this collection capture the feeling of being buffeted by great gusts of middle-aged longing.

With voluptuous detail and rigorous self-interrogation, Jennifer Brice looks for answers in family lore, personal experience, conversations with friends, and beloved books.
