Narration Supposing Books The Albino Album

Emerging author Chavisa Woods has been noted for capturing a "strange, troubling vision of domestic life in the rural U.S." (Go Magazine). Here she presents a technicolored vision of rural adolescence, the story of a girl with an unpronounceable name---a fiery, unhinged, growling, big-hearted queer country girl in a dirty black tutu and combat boots who travels along all the bizarre yet familiar byways of human desire from the cornfields of Louisiana and the big brass sound of Mardi Gras to the heights of the Empire State Building. Turning the tradition of the southern gothic novel on its head, Woods presents a new land of contemporary misfits including fire-dancers, pseudo-Nazis who breed albino animals, Catholic workers, horse thieves, and the archangel Gabrielle.

A bold exploration of the intersections of race, class, and sexuality, The Albino Album contemplates the relationships between political action, art and romance, as our heroine tries on a series of bewitchingly fantastical families looking for the place to call home.

Write-Up Regarding Books The Albino Album
This book was mesmerizing. It swallowed me up every time I picked it up. It definitely going on my 'never forgetting' shelf - I'm going to recommend it to everyone I know and reread it often. The only problem I have with it is that I'm unsatisfied with the ending - the last time I picked it up and realized there was barely any pages left I was anxious as heck as I read, and the ending really didn't help with that. What happened next? Did Mya go through with her plans, did her uncles and Idrissa

some good chapters. overall meh.

I don't even know where to begin with this book. I feel like so much happened and I'm still dizzy; my thoughts are trying to catch up with my feelings. Basically, this book is amazing. You have a queer main character with an unpronounceable name, who sometimes goes by Mya, a non-binary character of colour who's an activist, at least one other queer character of colour, whose particular brand of activism sometimes spills into the territory of terrorism, men with southern drawls who horse nap in

What's a gal to do after she accidentally feeds her mother to an albino tiger?Well, the girl with the unpronounceable name, the heroine of this hefty kitten-squisher, will subsequently bumble through life depending on the kindness of strangers. Everyone will inexplicably and instantly fall in love with (or at least want to have sex with) this wretched, unwashed, motherless ragamuffin...even after she loses her hair in a bizarre juggling accident.Love at first sight? A powerless, uneducated waif

Chavisa Woods is a force to be reckoned with and I am so glad that I will have the great opportunity to hear her read March 8th at Lawn Gnome Bookstore in Phoenix. Her debut Novel is a wonderful piece of literature that you won't want to put down. It soars and beckons you to stay put and fly right alongside.

Despite the fact that this book confused me fairly often and occasionally annoyed me, in the end I think I love it? I'm pretty certain it's a work of genius, somewhere in between Moby Dick and I've Got A Time Bomb by Sybil Lamb. It's a truly epic, truly bizarre queer coming of age story for the 21st century. It tackles sexuality, race, class, leftist/lesbian/punk politics, and other issues in a way I've never seen before, like an anthropologist with the keen eye of an observer but the familiar
