Zoom Meet & Greet with Author Christina Cooke
We are very excited to host @christina.j.cooke on Zoom this coming Tuesday at 6pm in collaboration with our Literary Spectrum Book Club!
Broughtupsy is a Queer Jamaican Diaspora Novel about a young woman grappling with grief as she discovers her family, her home, is always just out of reach.
Wayne Compton was quoted saying,
“Broughtupsy is a tale that spans the hemisphere, from Jamaica to Texas, to British Columbia. It also spans the evocative and intricate lengths of kinship and relationship. Christina Cooke weaves a tale of personal revelation and desire, spun from a language that is agile, vibrant, and expert in its registers.”
Also described by Sarah Nielson as,
“A dazzling symphony of what it means to love, to grieve, and to belong.”
