Young Adult Fiction – Short Story Collection

Published: 4/12/2022

High Spiritsrepresents the first book from Camille Gomera-Tavarez, who takes her place as one of the most extraordinary new voices to emerge in years.

High Spiritsis a collection of eleven interconnected short stories from the Dominican diaspora, from debut author Camille Gomera-Tavarez.

It is a book centered on one extended family the Belns across multiple generations.

It is set in the fictional small town of Hidalpa and Santo Domingo and Paterson and San Juan and Washington Heights too.

It is told in a style both utterly real and distinctly magical and its stories explore machismo, mental health, family, and identity.

But most of all,High Spiritsrepresents the first book from Camille Gomera-Tavarez, who takes her place as one of the most extraordinary new voices to emerge in years.

Full of vivid and poetic imagery settings worthy of drinking in, and thematic material ripe for contemplation about identity, intergenerational memory, and patriarchy and toxic masculinity, Gomera-Tavarezs soulfully crafted debut is a sensitive, intrinsically feminist work.
