by Mel Michelle Lewis
“A bountiful feast of a book. . . . The first thing you notice about Biomythography Bayou is its fecundity, its rich and generous voice. Yet not a word is wasted. Right from the start, you feel the presence of ancestors, their interwoven histories, and the effulgence of Lewis as a Black, queer woman with a complex heritage. . . . [An] effusive celebration of a book recommended to readers of all stripes, ages, and walks of life.”
