First, it’s very complicated, and I’m not as well informed as some other people I’d like you to talk to. Second, this isn’t something that can be explained in half an hour, or even several hours.

But where the earlier book concentrated on the deadly impasse to which we humans have brought the planet,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eYesno\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis lighter and more playful, canvassing the possibility of hope. It explores an ethic of yesno, simultaneously embracing pessimism and hope. In the author's own words: \"Before I began\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eYesno\u003c\/em\u003e, I thought it would be a pendulum swing from\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eUn\u003c\/em\u003e, moving from bleakness to hope. But the poems kept misfiring, sounding forced. Eventually, I realized the task was more complex. Namely, to articulate a world in which the demolition derby and the possibility of living more constructively in the natural order are both real. And at once.
