Wild Hope - Stories for Lent...

Gayle Boss

This is a beautifully elegant, deeply excellent book, pursued by grace on every page, in every stunning illustration." 

—Carl Safina, ecologist, NYT bestselling author of Beyond Words and Becoming Wild; MacArthur Fellow and founder of The Safina Center

From the bestselling author of All Creation Waits — a beautiful book of hope for Lent, filled with twenty-five of Earth's rare and wild creatures. Their stories, while tragic and uncomfortable, will wake readers to greater compassion and hope.

Pangolins and polar bears, olms, lemurs, and leopards. We share this planet with creatures magnificent, delicate, intricate—and now vanishing at a faster rate than at any other time in Earth's history.


Spend Lent with twenty-five of these endangered animals. Vivid descriptions of the miracle of each creature and the peril it faces will fill readers with wonder and grief at what these animals suffer on a planet shaped by human choices. Their true and difficult stories will wake readers to a greater compassion—which is what Lent, meaning "springtime," has always been for. These stories also wake in us a wild hope that from all this death and ruin something new could rise. The promise of Lent is that something new will rise. In fact, as these stories attest, our hope, though wild, is not impossible and is already loose in the world.
