Win 1 of 5 signed copies of Call Us What We Carry

We're thrilled to be publishing Call Us What We Carry, the breakout poetry collection by Amanda Gorman. Including 'The Hill We Climb,' the stirring poem read at the inauguration of the 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden, this luminous poetry collection by Amanda Gorman captures a shipwrecked moment in time and transforms it into a lyric of hope and healing.

In Call Us What We Carry, Gorman explores history, language, identity, and erasure through an imaginative and intimate collage. Harnessing the collective grief of a global pandemic, these seventy poems shine a light on a moment of reckoning and reveal that Gorman has become our messenger from the past, our voice for the future.

To celebrate publication, we're offering five lucky readers the chance to win a very limited edition signed bookplate copy of Call Us What We Carry.
