In Season

In Season is a powerful and fearless poetry collection by Kai Diata Giovanni, the 2025 Youth Poet Laureate of New York City. With a voice far beyond their years, Kai explores themes of identity, justice, queerness, love, grief, and transformation through a lens that is unapologetically Black, tender, and revolutionary.

This striking volume of contemporary poetry speaks to a generation that refuses to be silenced. Each poem pulses with rhythm and resistance-tackling systemic oppression, celebrating queer joy, and reclaiming space for healing. Whether bearing witness to personal growth or offering searing commentary on social injustice, In Season is both deeply intimate and politically urgent.

Perfect for readers of Audre Lorde, Danez Smith, and Ocean Vuong, this collection announces a poet who is not just responding to the world, but reshaping it.
