West Asheville Yoga Summer Book Club | In Person
Join us for a soul-nourishing journey!
Featuring A Rebellion of Care by David Gate
Hosted by Kim Drye of West Asheville Yoga and J. Faye D’Avanza of Library of Care
About the Book
Join us for a soul-nourishing journey through A Rebellion of Care by David Gate—a moving manifesto in poems and essays that invites us to embrace our humanity and live fully alive in our age of social change, hyper-capitalism, and pervasive loneliness. With signature snark, humor, and billowing hope, Gate inspires us to rally for what makes life worth living: creating art as a form of care, living beyond consumer impulse, and loving our neighbors (even the odd ones).
Rejecting the notion that despair and positivity are our only available responses, this collection urges us to foster deep friendships that challenge social orders and embrace questions of meaning and purpose. As Gate writes, "Saying something true in a world awash with lies is the first act of rebellion."
