“<i>Unfurl: Survivals, Sorrows, and Dreaming</i> by Eli Clare is a balm, an invitation, a provocation. Time travel with these poems, essays, and access notes and soak in the disabled wisdom. <i>Unfurl</i> will open your spirit.” - Alice Wong, editor of <i>Disability Intimacy: Essays on Love, Care, and Desire</i> <br /> <br />“In <i>Unfurl</i>, Eli Clare offers a practice of survival rooted in interdependence and collective care. Confronting the ruptures of colonialism, diagnosis, categorization, and abuse, Clare offers the space for self to return to self. Here access creates intimacy, in ‘a river of stutter,’ ‘a feather bed of tremors,’ and an ode to moss, mushrooms, lichen, rocks, and leaves. Yes, this is a book about learning how to dream.” - Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore, author of <i>Touching the Art</i> <br /> <br />“Eli Clare’s <i>Unfurl</i> moves in many directions, an intricate whirl, a spiraling dance across time and place toward radical, open-ended crip trans/queer abolitionist and anticolonial world making. Both balm and toolkit, these poems, stories, and dreamings do urgent work, sharing histories, memories, and practices of care and action against our racial-imperialist, genocidal, ecocidal present. They gather and honour communities, build our capacities for resistance, and refuse the violent coercions of power.” - Trish Salah, author of <i>Lyric Sexology, Vol. 1</i>
