BILLY'S PICK Get ready to be introduced to some of your future favourite poets. The breadth of tone, style, content, and form in this collection is beyond impressive. An especially present book for a moment when trans emancipation is so presently under threat. Reading this feels like your community is in the room with you. - BB Editors Andrea Abi-Karam and Kay Gabriel offer We Want it All: An Anthology of Radical Trans Poetics as an experiment into how far literature, written from an identitarian standpoint, can go as a fellow traveler with social movements and revolutionary demands. Writing in dialogue with emancipatory political movements, the intergenerational writers assembled here imagine an altogether overturned world in poems that pursue the particular and multiple trans relationships to desire, embodiment, housing, sex, ecology, history, pop culture, and the working day.
