The Tongue I Dream In

This book of poems, stories, and essays draws together examples illustrating a mind immersed in Black legends and white myths, and in the growing realisation of our place in the world and time, and in irresistible pull of the future: starships, floods, dancers twinned by crystal-filled caverns, and iridescent crops of living retribution. In her interview, Thomas explores the intricate intersections of poetry and activism and underscores the way she inhabits them. Taste with this book''s tongue the salty sweetness of her world.
