Overview
"My Share of the Body is a collection of short stories that revolve around grieving, ownership, and queerness. Each story confronts the process of grieving from an angle unique to character and circumstance, often positing loss as a yearning for the body of another. The collection attempts not to make sense of grief, but rather to explore the experience both in the immediate wake and beyond. As a whole, these stories question time, how time changes as we move through loss, and, still, how time is an agonizing constant at times of loss and disconnection. These stories seek to document the lives of queer people in their moments of heartache and joy, their moments of repression and freedom." -- Abstract
