Hope, Interrupted: America Lost & Found in Letters

More about the book

Hope, Interrupted is a cautionary tale of hope, fear, optimism, existential dread and living. Byron and Jennifer, a Black man who grew up in the South, and a Jewish woman who grew up in the North, wrote during six months of COVID, a failing economy, Black Lives Matter and political unrest. They are average Americans, born two years apart who jointly experience family, working lives, marriage, health and the future of a fractured nation. Written while generally 1,300 miles from each other, they explored the mood and attitude that traversed the United States.
