Writing can help us move through grief, pain and trauma - and can be a way to make sense of the past. Gina Chick's memoir We Are the Stars is a bold story of connection to nature and grief at the death of a child; Bebe Oliver's If This Is the End is a powerful poetry collection about queer identity and recovering from endings; and Emma Trenorden writes a deeply thoughtful, poetic response to the Black Summer fires in High Fire Danger. Don't miss this conversation about using narrative as a means to come to terms with our greatest struggles.
