Glory Tastes Like This

By Jennifer Graves

Glory Tastes Like This is a visceral, holy-fire confession of awakening and reclamation-a sacred hymn whispered through the bodies of two women, set deep in 1940s Appalachia.

When a weary traveler stumbles into a revival tent, seeking shelter from a world that never fit her, she finds more than hymns and hell-fire. She finds a veiled woman whose silence holds something ancient. Something watching. Something waiting.

A sudden summer storm becomes revelation-of touch, of memory, of a body long denied its fire. In a cave carved into the side of a mountain intimacy becomes a sacrament and desire becomes a door to truths forgotten.

As a preacher flees from what he cannot bear to see the two women remain. They don't flinch. They don't hide. This is not a love story. This is an invocation.

Glory Tastes Like This is a queer novella that weaves Appalachian grit with sacred sensuality. Lyrical, intimate, and defiant it tells the story of what happens when two women remember who they are-and what their bodies are for.
