Whitehead explores Indigeneity, queerness, and the relationships between body, language and land through a variety of genres (essay, memoir, notes, confession). Making Love With the Land is a look at what it means to live as a queer Indigenous person "in the rupture" between identities. Whitehead illuminates this particular moment, in which both Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples are navigating new (and old) ideas about "the land." He asks: What is our relationship and responsibility towards it? And how has the land shaped our ideas, our histories, our very bodies? Here is a love song -- a powerful revelation about the library of stories land and body hold together, waiting to be unearthed and summoned into word.
