Ambient Technology
"Ambient Technology excavates the silver lining of a dream which has been lost. Ashley Obscura's second collection of poetry takes us to a place where time slows down long enough for light to retain form. A meditation on the emergency of intimacy and connection, this collection deconstructs narratives of love and belonging to land amongst new modes of being and belonging in the world."--

Love Speech
Poetry. Asian & Asian American Studies. LGBTQIA Studies. Women's Studies. LOVE SPEECH is an auto-theoretical book that reads both like poetry and an epistle; a textile of literary mothers shot through with cultural-political feelings, threads of conversation, and moments from queer life. LOVE SPEECH takes it titles from an ethics of addressability that Judith Butler originally raises to examine what makes language such as hate speech hurtful. "Our very being exposes us to the address of another," she says (via Claudia Rankine's account in Citizen: An American Lyric.) Butler considers the inverse in several conversations, and Huang, too, is more devoted to theorizing and enacting love speech further.
Confirmation Bias
"Confirmation bias is the tendency to interpret new evidence in support of one's existing beliefs or theories. In her stunning debut collection of poetry, Ivanna Baranova throws shade at fixed notions of evidence, existence, and theory in an attempt to transcend the beliefs that demand our psychic reproduction. Desire, affect, anger, and healing collide with Baranova's lived experiences of feminine conditioning, queer and racialized identity, nausea under capitalism, and experimental therapy in a metaphysical Big Bang of possibility. The resulting poems are bright with insight, crackling with humour and idiom, and burning with unforgettable intellect, authenticity, resiliency, and compassion."--
The Nerves
Fiction. LGBTQIA Studies. THE NERVES subverts the literary approach to sexuality by treating the erotic not as a site of anxiety but of reverie. Set in an imaginary world where our sense memories tell us who we are, Lena Suksi's literary debut is psychedelic, attentive, cinematic and hot.

Engaging in a queer erotics of language, Suksi's debut is a bundle of wet atmospheres, speaking to faith in touch.
