Across their poetry, scholarship, and fiction, Sarah Schulman and Prageeta Sharma take us through complex navigations of care and conflict -- how we form mutually supportive structures through grief and adversity; the vulnerabilities and fractures which surface within intimacy; the many shifting ways fear, need, pleasure, memory, and devotion shape us at every level of community and relation. Sarah Schulman's 20th book, LET THE RECORD SHOW: A Political History of ACT UP, NY 1987-1993 will be published by FSG in May. Prageeta Sharma's most recent book is Grief Sequence, published by Wave in 2019.
