Karen Chase’s HISTORY IS EMBARASSING “weaves together threads from one single life—a girl suffering from polio, a poet, a Jewish woman, a writer, and a painter.”

Black History Month is a time to reflect on and celebrate the profound contributions of Black authors, board members, and the community that have significantly impacted CavanKerry Press and its legacy. (1/2)
Dr. King reminded us that justice does not arrive politely—at CavanKerry Press, we believe literature is one of those acts of care. Today and always, we stand with underserved communities, honoring voices that insist on dignity, freedom, and truth.

Our Spring 2026 Collection bears witness to the human heart—
girlhood & grief, rage & reclamation, desire & defiance, love & lineage.
Four voices, one chorus of transformation:
Where poetry meets survival, & story becomes healing.

Told in what the author calls Jazz Triptych, Indigo Moor harnesses the anger within himself to perform an exorcism of the childhood that led him inching toward murder in the dizzying racism of his life. (1/2)
