In Brilliant Imperfection Eli Clare uses memoir, history, and critical analysis to explore cure-the deeply held belief that body-minds considered broken need to be fixed. Cure serves many purposes. It saves lives, manipulates lives, and prioritizes some lives over others. It provides comfort, makes profits, justifies violence, and promises resolution to body-mind loss. Clare grapples with this knot of contradictions, maintaining that neither an anti-cure politics nor a pro-cure worldview can account for the messy, complex relationships we have with our body-minds. The stories he tells range widely, stretching from disability stereotypes to weight loss surgery, gender transition to skin lightening creams. At each turn, Clare weaves race, disability, sexuality, class, and gender together, insisting on the nonnegotiable value of body-mind difference. Into this mix, he adds environmental politics, thinking about ecosystem loss and restoration as a way of delving more deeply into cure. Ultimately Brilliant Imperfection reveals cure to be an ideology grounded in the twin notions of normal and natural, slippery and powerful, necessary and damaging all at the same time.Binding Type: Paperback

Impressed
I’ll be honest, I didn’t have the highest expectations for this jacket. However, I very pleasantly surprised by the fit and quality. The jacket fit very well and just as I expected. The quality was even more impressive with the weight and overall quality of the denim. For the the price, this jacket definitely hits all the marks. I was able to style it perfectly with a hoodie.

A timeless classic at a great price
This is honestly a very well-made denim jacket, with all the classic features found on a Type III Trucker Jacket: 2 breast pockets, 2 side pockets, 2 inner pockets. The material feels very comfortable and thick and strong at the same time. A multi purpose jacket that will be your perfect companion for almost all seasons in almost all situations. I took an XL size because I wanted to wear a sweatshirt under it. I weigh 198 pounds and am 5.7 tall. I will probably buy another one in L size for a tighter fit.
