{"product_id":"9781526197337","title":"Q Is for Garden","description":"A bold, tender exploration of how queerness and nature entwine - and what happens when we step beyond the binaries that fence us in.\n \n There is a Q in garden, but you can't always see it.\n \n When Jenny Chamarette faced a devastating health crisis, they found themselves unmoored from the rules of gender, sexuality and productivity. In a small South London garden, Jenny began to imagine another way of living: porous, unruly, rooted in the lessons of soil and plant life. Gardens, like identities, are usually bounded - but what if those limits can be re-drawn?\n \n Blending memoir and cultural criticism, this book asks whether the categories we inherit - colonial, patriarchal, conventions of sexuality and gender - still serve us, or whether they confine us. From illness and recovery to queer love and ecological wonder, Q is for Garden invites readers to reimagine how we inhabit land, culture and each other.\n \n An eloquent work of nature writing and queer thought, Q is for Garden digs into the rich history of queer gardeners, botanists, artists and agriculturalists. It offers a hopeful vision of belonging, if we are curious enough to unearth it.","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57308771352949,"sku":"9781526197337","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9781526197337.jpg?v=1782124371","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.com\/products\/9781526197337","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
