Garlic Moon is a book of portals, prayer, and magic.
Here, we meet with the kitchen healer and the lichen rabbi. We find ourselves in a greenhouse in a snowstorm, in a sukkah filled with fairies, on a lost coast. We dip into magic realism, surrealism, and the bathtub. We are invited into a place both familiar and fantastical: the plant world of our ancestors, the home of prophet babes, barnacle geese, and everyday angels--one of embodied ritual and sacred whimsy.
Garlic Moon follows the Jewish lunisolar calendar, moving through Fall to Summer, punctuated by lists of peculiar but charming angels, and embodied writing and artistic prompts called writual that read as both poetry and prayer. Garlic Moon draws heavily on feminist midrash, folktale, folk magic, and plant medicine, resulting in a poetry book that is both narrative and mystical.
