allostatic load navigates the racialized interplay of chronic wear and tear during tumultuous years marked by global racial tensions, the commodification of care, and the burden of systemic injustice. Moving between diaristic intimacy and the remove of news reportage, Junie Désil's second poetry collection invites readers to hold the vulnerability and resilience required to navigate deep healing in a world that does not wish you well, in a world that is inflamed and consequently inflames us, in a world where true restoration and health must co-occur with the planet and with each other.
Junie Désil is of Haitian ancestry. Her work has appeared in Room, PRISM International, *The Capilano Review, and CV2. Her first book, eat salt gaze at the ocean (Talonbooks, 2020), received wide acclaim. She work in Vancouver and resides on Lasqueti Island.
