“In the woods, it had been so easy to assert herself fearlessly, but it was impossible to be a free woman among people. Society demanded a certain level of lying about oneself.”
Rivers Solomon, Sorrowland

Amie McNee
“When I ask you to stop making innovative art and start making vulnerable art, I am asking you to stop trying to make something new and start making something you. Your worldview, your emotions, your pain, your joy, your relationships, your noticings, your culture, your heritage, your ancestry, your fears, your desires, your trauma, your love. Your truth.”
Amie McNee, We Need Your Art: Stop Messing Around and Make Something

“Care tasks exist for one reason only… to make your body and space functional enough for you to easily experience the joy this world has to offer.”
K.C. Davis, How to Keep House While Drowning

“That is the life-changing result of internalizing that you do not exist to serve your space, your space exists to serve you.”
K.C. Davis, How to Keep House While Drowning

“I hope that even as Sorrrowland delves into the pain these colonial states have wrought, one might see the joy, triumph, and humor of those who resist, resist, resist. That said, there is no mincing words about some of the darker themes in this book. Note discussion and instances of racism, misogyny, self-harm, suicidality, and homophobia, inclusion of animal death and explicit violence, and references to sexual violence that have taken place off the page.
I hope you find in this book whatever it is you need right this moment.”
Rivers Solomon, Sorrowland
