Publisher's Synopsis
My Body Is A Resource I Am Willing To Expend is a story of becoming:of learning what it means to care and be cared for, to love and be loved. In 2016, Katie (Tom) Walters caught fresher's flu and never quite recovered and developed a severely disabling, incurable disease. This debut collection exposes the process of acceptance, reconfiguring their relationships and finding their place in an increasingly inaccessible world. From their bed, they rebel in a world of sprawling plants and transcendental tenderness, where righteous crip pride collides with rage, grief, and mourning.
