Sister Spit
Writing, Rants and Reminiscence from the Road
Michelle Tea
Sister Spit: Writing, Rants and Reminiscence from the Road captures the provocative, politicized and risk-taking elements that characterize the Sister Spit aesthetic, stamping the raw energy and signature style of the live show onto the page. Bratty poets and failed priestesses, punk angst and tough love, too much to drink and tattooed timelines–this anthology captures it all in a collection of poetry, personal narrative, fiction and artwork. Featuring a who’s who of queer and queer-centric writers and artists, the collection functions as a travelog, a historical document and a yearbook from irreverent graduates of the school of hard knocks.
Includes contributions by Eileen Myles, Beth Lisick, Michelle Tea, MariNaomi, Cristy Road, Ali Liebegott, Blake Nelson, Lenelle Moise and many more!
‘Heartbreakingly beautiful writing; sometimes funny, sometimes shattering–always revolutionary. Truly amazing collection!’–Margaret Cho
‘Sister Spit is like the underground railroad for burgeoning queer writers. Not only in the van, but in the audiences trapped in the hinterlands of America and looking to escape. Sister Spit saves lives.’–Justin Vivian Bond, author of TANGO: My Childhood, Backwards and in High Heels
