New Book Coming! Unfurl: Poems, Essays, and In-Betweens

A fern with furled green leaves.

Eli is hard at work on a new book, tentatively titled Unfurl: Poems, Essays, and In-Betweens. It examines the making and unmaking of categories and asks the question: who might we become if we unfurl ourselves between and through categories, across divides of human and more-than-human, animate and inanimate? Combining poetry, prose, storytelling, and critical thinking grounded in a commitment to multi-issue activist frameworks centering the tangle of disability, race, class, gender, and sexuality, this exploration is  by turns visceral and heady, grief-filled and joyful. And best of all, a publisher, who will remain unnamed for now, has expressed interest in the manuscript. Stay tuned for more.
