Relentlessly inventive poetry that proclaims a diasporic, queer, and disabled self-hood.

In Jane Shi's echolalia echolalia, commitment and comedy work together to critique ongoing inequities, dehumanizing ideologies, and the body politic. Here are playful and transformative narratives of friendship and estrangement, survival and self-forgiveness. Writing against inherited violence and scarcity-producing colonial projects, Shi expresses a deep belief in one's chosen family, love and justice.

"Shi extends her poetics in all directions with silky skill. Language flourishes in the realm of a poet like this."
- T. Liem, author of Slows: Twice and Obits.

Jane Shi lives on the occupied, stolen, and unceded territories of the x?m k y m (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and s?lil?ilw ta (Tsleil-Waututh) nations. Her writing has appeared in the Disability Visibility Blog, Briarpatch Magazine, The Offing, and Queer Little Nightmares: An Anthology of Monstrous Fiction and Poetry (Arsenal Pulp Press), among others. Jane is an alumnus of Tin House Summer Workshop, The Writer's Studio Online at Simon Fraser University, and StoryStudio Chicago. She is the winner of The Capilano Review's 2022 In(ter)ventions in the Archive Contest and the author of the chapbook Leaving Chang'e on Read (Rahila's Ghost Press, 2022). She wants to live in a world where love is not a limited resource, land is not mined, hearts are not filched, and bodies are not violated.
