Happiness, this beautiful book says, is the ultimate act of resistance.&quot&#8213Mihelle
Hart,&nbspemO The Oprah Magazine/em/strongThe youngest ever winner of the Griffin Prize mines his
personal history in a brilliant new essay collection seeking to reconcile the world he was born into with
the world that could be.For readers of Ocean Vuong and Maggie Nelson and fans of Heart Berries by
Terese Marie Mailhot, A History of My Brief Body is a brave, raw, and fiercely intelligent collection of
essays and vignettes on grief, colonial violence, joy, love, and queerness.Billy-Ray
Belcourt&#8217sdebut memoir opens with a tender letter to his kokum and memories of his early life in
the hamlet of Joussard, Alberta, and on the Driftpile First Nation. Piece by piece, Billy-
Ray&#8217swritings invite us to unpack and explore the big and broken world he inhabits every day, in
all its complexity and contradiction: a legacy of colonial violence and the joy that flourishes in spite of it
first loves and first loves lost sexual exploration and intimacy the act of writing as a survival instinct and a
way to grieve. What emerges is not only a profound meditation on memory, gender, anger, shame, and
ecstasy, but also the outline of a way forward. With startling honesty, and in a voice distinctly and
assuredly his own, Belcourt situates his life experiences within a constellation of seminal queer texts,
among which this book is sure to earn its place. Eye-opening, intensely emotional, and excessively
quotable, A History of My Brief Body demonstrates over and over again the power of words to both
devastate and console us.
