Martyrs and Chickens

Commenting on Martyrs and Chickens, Kate Baer, author of How About Now and other poetry bestsellers, says that "Beachy writes with exquisite tenderness, wit, and unflinching honesty about faith, family, and the push-pull of heritage. Through essays that are both deeply personal and universally resonant, she navigates marriage, motherhood, infertility, and caregiving-all while reckoning with what it means to inherit a legacy of sacrifice and simplicity. I clutched my heart."
