"Interlocutor Goddess, the debut collection by Jasmine Reid, explores the creation of a trans language for selfhood within an exilic state of "ecstatic grief."

"Interlocutor Goddess, the debut collection by Jasmine Reid, explores the creation of a trans language for selfhood within an exilic state of "ecstatic grief." Reid's experimental work challenges societal norms, particularly the family as a political construct while reflecting on the trans experiences of a queer Black woman. The poems grapple with oppressive systems of separation and colonial legacies, rejecting extractive, empire-driven paradigms, and gender essentialism. Within her collection, Reid envisions alternative, ethical ways of being, rooted in unity and wholeness and finds kinship with the rhythms and lifeways of the natural world-soil, stars, and water. Her poetry employs a trans-lyricism, weaving together dual meanings through homonyms, homophones, and portmanteaus to create a layered, fugitive language that resists rigid classifications. At its core, Interlocutor Goddess is an act of transfiguration, a celebration of girlhood, and a reclamation of wholeness for all who exist beyond imposed boundaries"-- Provided by publisher.
