Microdosing Hope

"Microdosing Hope is exactly what these times call for. Lyndsay’s poetry reminds me time and again, our experience is valid and shared and there is light to be found even in the depths of the dark." —Busy Philipps, actress and author of This Will Only Hurt a Little

The new poetry collection from bestselling poet Lyndsay Rush (@maryoliversdrunkcousin) is an irreverent and unlikely celebration of finding hope amidst the hellscape, for fans of Kate Baer and Kate Kennedy.

In this irreverent and unlikely celebration of finding hope amidst the hellscape, Lyndsay Rush uses her signature blend of humor and sincerity to tackle daunting questions like, How do we keep breaking news from breaking our spirit? Are we allowed to have fun when so many are suffer-ing? How do we hold sorrow and joy at the same time? What do we owe each other? What do we owe ourselves?

Contemplating tricky, hot topics ranging from parenting (during the apocalypse) and being an artist (in the age of AI) all the way to spiritu-ality (in the end-times) and aging (ungracefully), Rush's poetry is a hilarious and timely affirmation that a little bit of hope can go a long way.

Brimming with nontoxic positivity and the belief that whimsy will sustain (and perhaps even save) us, Microdosing Hope proves that laughter is indeed the best medicine. Take two and call her in the morning.
