Carrying a Tree on the Bus to Low Edges

Writing in northern time through lockdowns and into the meta-crises since, Stephen Sawyer asks urgent questions about what it is that makes us human in the face of so many threats to life and what sustains it.

Carrying a Tree on the Bus to Low Edges is a forest of stories and voices, a portrait of the uprooted, unheard, locked in and locked out of place and time, a soulful, luminous meditation to reaffirm bonds and identities that cross borders and epochs, now more than ever under siege.
