Carvell Wallace: Another Word for Love, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A transformative memoir that reimagines the conventions of love and posits a radical vision for healing.

In Another Word for Love , Carvell Wallace excavates layers of his own history, situated in the struggles and beauty of growing up Black and queer in America.

Wallace is an award-winning journalist who has built his career on writing unforgettable profiles, bringing a provocative and engaged sensitivity to his subjects. Now he turns the focus on himself, examining his own life and the circumstances that frame it-to make sense of seeking refuge from homelessness with a young single mother, living in a ghostly white Pennsylvania town, becoming a partner and parent, raising two teenagers in what feels like a collapsing world.

With courage, vulnerability, and a remarkable expansiveness of spirit-not to mention a thrilling, and unrivaled, storytelling verve-Another Word for Lovemakes an irresistible case for life, healing, the fullness of our humanity, and, of course, love. It could be called a theory of life itself-a theory of being that will leave you open to the wonder of the world.
