Conceived as an archive of wisdom written by a disabled man for his
children, You May Not Take the Sad and Angry Consolations gives
voice to the experience of living in an ableist society: "Why does
it hurt when emotion spills out of a body? How does emotion spell
'body'? What does it mean to be good? Why is the surplus of beauty
everywhere? What is the password?" Weaving together reflections on
fatherhood, Walt Whitman's place in American history, art, and the
lingering effects of past trauma, these ringing and raw poems
theorize on the concept of shame, its intended purpose, and its
effects for and on disabled body-minds.
