"COCONUT is an exploration of my place in the universe as told through stories of the author's experiences of racism, sexuality, empowerment, grief, and love. It tells girls like her that their origins live within themselves, and that their stories of the mundane and profound alike make up who they are. The book is written in an unrestricted confessional style, confronting notions of propriety and form, to touch on themes that matter to the author as a woman and second-generation immigrant in a capitalist, exploitative, and degrading world."--

Autorenporträt
Nisha Patel is a queer spoken word poet & artist. She is the City of Edmonton's 8th Poet Laureate and the 2019 Canadian Individual Slam Champion. She is a prominent organizer and community builder, having worked with festivals across Canada, participating in both the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word and the Canadian Individual Slam Championship. Her chapbooks, Limited Success, Water, Edmonton Girl, and I See You have reached audiences around the world with their discussions of family and grief, racism, and feminism. Over the years, Nisha has led many workshops and performed from small town Moose Jaw to metropolitan Seoul, South Korea over the course of four national and international tours. With nearly 200 performances to date, Nisha is committed to furthering her goals of reaching audiences that need it and the pursuit of excellence in spoken word. To that end, she has self-started community-focused residencies and mentored poets from multiple disciplines, curated showcases, taught performance and writing, and worked within new genres. In 2019, she co-founded a national queer femme South Asian artist collective, Maza Arts, and co-founded Moon Jelly House, a publishing house centering the work of marginalized poets.
