Description: Fiction. Poetry. Hybrid Genre. Latino/Latina Studies. BLACK LAVENDER MILK is an experimental lyric that dreamt of becoming a novel only to wake up as notebook. Employing and smudging elements of poetry, prose and memoir, BLACK LAVENDER MILK offers the space of a 'novel' as a site of mourning, inquiry and recuperation. Through a complex, hypnotic blur of language, the lyric-as-novel functions as an extended meditation on Writing in relation to the Body; Time, Loss, Ancestry and Dreaming. "Paranormal poetics never sounded more redundant, more welcome and welcoming. Angel Dominguez writes, 'I occupy a continent within my body. / I am going there today to bury my grandfather.' He has a continent in his body of the most extraordinary poetry turning the dream over to the soil and water of the dreamer. From orchard to ocean his omnipresent tenderness maps our way to the poet as shaman. I shudder with disbelief at his words and want them to knock on all our closed doors. There's a home in this book like strategy where we meet to stop the hemorrhaging loss. Please read it NOW!" —CA Conrad
