"In her lovely, complicated poems, Beyer . . . suggests that queerness isn't relegated to gender or love but is part of the ebb and flow of everything." --Library Journal "What is remarkable aboutWe Come Elemental is that it effectively queers nature and body without explicitly doing so.... Gender, sexuality, and body coexist with the ever-changing tides, and desire is upheld as a pure form of (re)creation. Beyer has written a nuanced book that deserves a careful, joyous, and thoughtful read." --Lambda Literary Through "queer::eco::poetics," Tamiko Beyer leads readers to reconsider the true meaning and implications of nature and "natural" order. Reclaiming nature as queer, Beyer inspires us to discard gender dichotomies and uncover the intricate relationships between bodies both human and elemental through syntax as unpredictable as the natural world's movements. From "Look Alive, Dark Side": Beach walking we who siphon the wet step around dumb lumps gleaming in moonlight's pull: creatures the tide abandons to the shore. We are not at all like them. Tamiko Beyer spent the first ten years of her life in Tokyo, Japan. She is the author of the chapbookbough breaks (Meritage Press). She received her MFA from Washington University in St. Louis and was awarded a Chancellor's Fellowship. Beyer is a former Kundiman Fellow, a recipient of a grant from the Astraea Lesbian Writers Fund, and a contributing editor toDrunken Boat. She works as the advocacy writer at Corporate Accountability International. No library descriptions found. |
