Summary
In Apocalypse Joy, Anjalica Solomon writes into the marrow of grief, where death is not an end but a wide open door.
This debut full-length poetry collection, forged in the wake of their grandfather's passing, traces a queer South Asian diasporic voice reaching through lineage, land, and loss. With the precision of a spell and the tenderness of a wound, Solomon excavates familial sorrow, spiritual rupture, and the fierce grace of survival.
A nationally celebrated spoken word artist and beloved community builder, Solomon brings the same electrifying presence and emotional clarity to the page that they've brought to stages across Turtle Island. Their poems carry the intimacy of prayer and the fire of protest--gathering language like kindling to build something that both mourns and burns bright with life.
These poems do not look away. They hold vigil at the thresholds of ecological disaster and devotion, where the body remembers what the mind cannot. Here, a child meets their mother for the first time. An ancestor returns as river. Language bends, breaks, and belts in a love song for the world. Apocalypse Joy is a lyric map for those who grieve in more than one tongue, a collection that dares to praise even as it mourns.
