The Queer Life of Things is provocative, joyful work. Harris and Holman Jones have given us a unique text, putting theory - affect theory, the new materialisms, queer theory, and more - to work through and between stories and performance texts that both delight and challenge. This is a rare book: it makes us laugh, it calls us to write, and it demands we act. Wonderful. -- Jonathan Wyatt, University of Edinburgh It takes a while before a new community that initially needs to assert itself can afford to turn to itself for critical analysis, and this book does exactly that in a tender, open, and timely way. This is innovative scholarship that is the first in its kind to `cross-pollinate' the New Materialisms with Queer Theory, Affect Theory and Performance Theory. This book explains, educates and disorients in ways that are equally as productive as they are delicious! Anyone say chicken? -- Fiona Murray, The University of Edinburgh
