Spoke the Dark Matter - Paperback

by Michelle Whittaker (Author)

Michelle Whittaker's Spoke the Dark Matter is an intimately carved, haunting window into the speaker's Jamaican American heritage and her struggles with illness, healthcare, and romantic relationships. Examining decisions and challenges, in hindsight, Whittaker invites us to ask our future selves: How much does quietly submitting to injustice cost? How do we endure? How do we reconnect with resilience? Spoke the Dark Matter examines and redraws a "quiet surge of dystopia," considering how the choices we make are so often entangled with our economic hardships. Whittaker's collection is a quest through the divine, natural, emotional, and disrupted ecologies.
