The breakout poetry collection by #1 New York Times bestselling
author and presidential inaugural poet Amanda Gorman
Formerly titled The Hill We Climb and Other Poems, the luminous poetry
collection by #1 New York Times bestselling author and presidential
inaugural poet Amanda Gorman captures a shipwrecked moment in time and
transforms it into a lyric of hope and healing. In Call Us What We
Carry, Gorman explores history, language, identity, and erasure through
an imaginative and intimate collage. Harnessing the collective grief of
a global pandemic, this beautifully designed volume features poems in
many inventive styles and structures and shines a light on a moment of
reckoning. Call Us What We Carry reveals that Gorman has become our
messenger from the past, our voice for the future.
