Alexander’s Reviews > Radical Hope: Ethics in the Face of Cultural Devastation > Status Update

This is a book with a lot of heart and learning. It speaks, in subtle and moving ways, of the experience of devastation and loss. Its language is a language that might be increasingly necessary in the world - of lack of it - to come. And yet! It inscribes it all in a vocabulary of hope that's - I think - a failure of nerve. A recuperative move that's - I'm sorry for this - more cope than hope.
