Everyone I Love, Alive
Autor Jason Bayanien Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 oct 2025
With this collection of poems, Jason Bayani leans into traditions of lyric, song, and prayer to cultivate life while existing within a time of empire and societal collapse. Everyone I Love, Alive wrestles with form to summon both the living and the dead. Bayani’s rich language calls us to experience a connection to cultural heritage and, even during times of oppression, to find the compassion and awareness needed to drive change. These poems show how not only our love and desires—but also our rage and resistance—can be the very things that keep us alive.

Recenzii
"Reading Bayani’s tender, searing collection is like bearing witness to a modern-day harana: a lover under the beloved’s window, singing out from the heart. Only here the beloved is the world; the future; the possibility of liberation. Bayani’s lucid, questing poems sing to these endangered things with a voice full of heartache, fury and hope—knowing too that a serenade, like any poem, is a way to share the breath of life. These poems do just that: they see that which is nearly lost, nearly gone and then they go to work—they resuscitate."
"This is—dare I say—Bayani’s most mystical book, a mighty alchemy of prayer and fury that was, for me, an invitation to feel with the honesty of water. A loss beyond language pulses through these poems; in its wake, a homecoming to stillness that’s deeply reparative and surprisingly thrilling. As always, Bayani is a tender witness to history’s brutality and beauty, which feels like a call to (now more than ever) remain human. Everyone I Love, Alive is vintage Bayani: loving, broken, broken open, capacious, searching, and shot through with an aching and 'audacious light.'"
"Bayani’s third book Everyone I love, Alive, is a triumph. The poems in this collection vibrate with the urgency of a dying world inviting the reader into a living present. This book holds cities, mythology, and memory. This book is brimming with questions that tear at the very fabric of our knowing and asks us to still love the world. If you’re new to the Jason Bayani Fandom this is the perfect place to start, welcome."
