About this ebook
Feeling used up or worn out. Reaching the limits of our personal and collective resources. Tapping out. Laying waste to the planet. Burning fuel until there's nothing left but fumes.
Each story and poem in this book engages exhaustion anew, revealing human struggles, moments of grace, and a relentless questioning. Far from exhausting the topic, this book opens up a conversation about what it means to have limited reserves and how we can move forward under such conditions.
"Society pressures us to carry stress, even when it weighs more than we do. These pieces reflect that common experience and give words to the silent struggles that isolate us within ourselves." - Renee Cronley, nurse and author of Burnout
