Future Works grapples with time, asking how to fully live in the present while also imagining possible futures. Written over a broken decade shaped by the implosion of the social promises of the past, Future Works is a funny, angry, and moving book about human and more-than-human labour, cities and trees, extractive economies, and the possibilities of decolonizing temporalities and building a shared futurity. Both sly and sincere, and driven by militant joy, these varied poems range across the uneven geographies of the present. Through the language of expectation, Future Works resonates with an unexpected optimism born out of uncanny solidarities and encounters, mutual aid, and the music of possibility.
