Soft Star alum Angela Acosta publishes new speculative chapbook
"A Belief in Cosmic Dailiness: Poems of a Fabled Universe" imagines Latinx futures through multilingual poetry and translation
Hello, all!
I’m excited to share that Soft Star contributor
has recently published a speculative poetry chapbook called A Belief in Cosmic Dailiness: Poems of a Fabled Universe with Red Ogre Review. You may recognize Angela from her poem “To Be Born on Europa” which was published in Issue Two: Aurora. This poem, along with many others, appears in A Belief in Cosmic Dailiness.
From Angela:
A Belief in Cosmic Dailiness is a bilingual English-Spanish collection of Latinx Futurist poetry. Celebrate the dailiness of multilingual and divergent Latinx futures while seated around a campfire. The 26 poems and 6 translations in this speculative chapbook travel from the Solar System to Andromeda to envision coming of age rituals, companionship, and the responsibilities of work and daily life around distant stars.
This chapbook was published via a grant from the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers Association. You can purchase a paperback copy through Amazon.
Congratulations on your chapbook, Angela! It’s always such a pleasure to watch Soft Star contributors thrive.
Until next time,
Miranda Adkins
