What's Left Is Tender explores tenderness as an act, an affect, a relation, a sensation, a theory. In a series of lyric and formal experiments, this collection interrogates how tenderness is often at the very intersections of disability, queerness, and race and how often that tenderness can also simultaneously mean struggle, discomfort, and even trauma. These poems explore the tenderness of being cared for, of caring for others and how that care can sometimes itself be painful even as it may attempt to ease that pain. This book ultimately asks if poetry's tenderness can tender new ways of thinking about the ethics of care.
