“This groundbreaking collection redefines feminist poetics, offering timely provocations and sophisticated insights. Engaging with critical university studies, Indigenous studies, trans studies, disability studies, and more, it explores ethical encounters and practices of care and reciprocity not just among humans, but beyond the human as well. The diverse yet thematically cohesive contributions highlight poetry’s role in addressing urgent cultural and political issues.” Sarah Dowling, University of Toronto
