The Queer Life of Things is provocative, joyful work. Harris and Holman Jones have given us a unique text, putting theory - affect theory, the new materialisms, queer theory, and more - to work through and between stories and performance texts that both delight and challenge. This is a rare book: it makes us laugh, it calls us to write, and it demands we act. Wonderful.
