Description:Alone TogetherThis collection of essays, poems, and interviews serves as a lifeline for negotiating how to connect and thrive during a time of isolation as well as a historical perspective that will remain relevant for years to come. All proceeds are being donated to The Book Industry Charitable Foundation, a nonprofit organization that coordinates charitable programs to strengthen the bookselling community. In response to the pandemic, Jennifer Haupt rallied almost one hundred authors and business partners to contribute their work, free of charge, to support independent booksellers forced to close their doors. The roster of diverse voices includes Faith Adiele, Kwame Alexander, Jenna Blum, Andre Dubus III, Jamie Ford, Nikki Giovanni, Luis Alberto Urrea, Pam Houston, Jean Kwok, Major Jackson, Caroline Leavitt, Devi S. Laskar, Ada Limón, Dani Shapiro, David Sheff, Garth Stein, Steve Yarbrough, and Lidia Yuknavitch. The overarching theme of the book is how this age of isolation and uncertainty is changing us as individuals and a society and is divided into five sections: What Now, Grieve, Comfort, Connect, and Don’t Stop. Praise“ALONE TOGETHER connects writers, readers, and booksellers in a wonderfully imaginative way.
