FlowerSong Press will celebrate the official release of Luz at Midnight, the debut novel by San Antonio author Marisol Cortez. Luz tells a climate change story unique to South Texas - belly of the beast for boom-and-bust extraction - challenging regional histories of environmental injustice while weaving a universal story of love and longing.
The release event will tell the story of Luz via selected readings by Cortez as well as conversation/readings by three guest artists who helped bring the book into the world - Mobi Warren and Kamala Platt from the Stone in the Stream/Roca en el Rio environmental writers collective, and Davíd Zamora Casas, whose painting “Question Everything” provided the novel's cover art.
Anyone who purchases a copy of the book from FlowerSong Press through the date of release will be entered into a raffle for several prizes, with drawings held throughout the event.
