- Summary:
- "The poems in sulphurtongue dwell in the entanglement of trauma and desire with more-than-human ecosystems. An unruly, femme, Latinx body confronts the boundaries of what qualifies as un/natural. Oracles appear in public transit. Revenants and polyamorists alike pass on unusual inheritances. Meanwhile, social identities of queerness, gender, race, and illness all emerge as inherently biological, ecological, and irreducibly fluid relations. Ending in the mine-scarred landscapes of northern Ontario, these poems want to imagine acts of care and desire that can flourish in a toxic environment."-- Provided by publisher.
