Q&A with Patrycja Humienik, author of We Contain Landscapes

Morality is a word I am curious about. I'm not interested in imposing any kind of way of being on other people, but I am interested in the dignity of all human life. I am interested in refusing the death cult of this society. I invite that conversation with this book, of wanting to widen this “we” and this love.
