Spilling the Light - Paperback
Details
by Julián Jamaica Soto (Author)
The light must spill to shine. The thing you must be is yourself.
Intimate and uncompromising, Rev. Julián Jamaica Soto's debut collection Spilling the Light, is a luminous offering to their communities and a defiant declaration of their worth in a world hostile to their queer, disabled, and brown being.
"America, is this freedom?" they ask. "I cannot prove to you that / I am a person," writing boldly of identity, community, liberation, and erasure through a prism of tender moments and powerful reckonings. These are poems of broken hallelujahs and codes/witching, of hunger and fire, of hope and resilience. They are complex, tender, and empowering. They embolden us to become our truest selves, willing us to survive.
