In Making Gaybies Jaya Keaney explores queer family making as a site of racialized intimacy. Drawing on interviews with queer families in Australia, Keaney traces the lived experiences of choice and constraint as these families seek to craft likeness with their future children and tell stories of chosen family made through love. Queer family building often involves multiracial and multicultural encounters, as intending parents take part in the global fertility industry. Keaney follows queer family making through reproductive technologies and highlights the confines of varied transnational reproductive markets and policies as well as changing formations of race, gender, sexuality, and kinship. Whether sharing the story of white gay men choosing Indian and Thai egg donors to make their surrogate-born children’s ethnicities visually distinct from their own or that of an Aboriginal lesbian and her white partner choosing a Cherokee donor from the United States to articulate a global Indigeneity, Keaney foregrounds the entwinement of reproduction, race, and affect. By focusing on queer family making, Keaney demonstrates how reproduction fosters a queer multiracial imaginary of kinship.

Here’s an exercise: take a piece of paper. Grab a pen, pencil, crayon — any drawing utensil within reach. Now, draw a typical family. The shape of family has changed in the 21st century. While the nuclear family still exists, many more types of kinship surround us. Kin is an investigation into what influences us to have children and the new ways that have made parenthood possible. It delves into the experiences of couples without children, single parents by choice and rainbow families, and investigates the impacts of adoption, sperm donation, IVF and surrogacy, and the potential for a future of designer babies. Assisted reproductive technology has developed quickly, and the ways in which we think and speak about its implications — both legally and ethically — need to catch up. Written by journalist Marina Kamenev, Kin: Family in the 21st century is an incisive and powerful look at how families are created today, and how they might be created in the future. ‘A careful and compassionate exploration of the creativity, pain and power involved in the eternally imperfect art of family making.’ — Gina Rushton, author of The Most Important Job in the World ‘A forensically researched book that’s impossible to put down, Kamenev deftly demonstrates how society’s understanding of family has changed through the generations and what it might mean now. You’ll be thinking about the issues she explores for years to come.’ — Isabelle Oderberg, author of Hard to Bear: Investigating the science and silence of miscarriage ‘Told with deep insight and heart, this groundbreaking book will broaden and transform your understanding of what defines and constitutes a family. A thoroughly quotable triumph.’ — Nadine J. Cohen, author of Everyone and Everything ‘A thorough and fascinating investigation into the myriad ways and complicated ethics of making modern families that explodes the outdated notion of the nuclear unit.’ — Alexandra Collier, author of Inconceivable: Heartbreak, bad dates and finding solo motherhood ‘Kin is a veritable tome on family – from its evolution to the unique ways we build it – that makes clear Western society’s concepts of family, reproduction and kinship need updating. Kamenev’s thoughtful and often witty voice combined with meticulously researched stories makes Kin a fascinating read.’ — Roz Bellamy, author of Mood: A memoir of love, identity and mental health and editor-in-chief of Archer magazine ‘Well researched and animated by a multitude of voices, Kin is a complex and moving account of how our capacity to create new forms of family has not always been accompanied by sufficient reflection. At the same time, Kin reveals the ways in which those who want to restrict the medical procedures that make these contemporary families draw from conservative notions of the traditional family and biological essentialism that are often at odds with their broader political beliefs. Kin is an important addition to our understanding of how modern kinship relations are understood, generated, and regulated.’ — Fiona Kelly, Dean of La Trobe University law school and an expert in family and health law

In The Afterlife of Reproductive Slavery Alys Eve Weinbaum investigates the continuing resonances of Atlantic slavery in the cultures and politics of human reproduction that characterize contemporary biocapitalism. As a form of racial capitalism that relies on the commodification of the human reproductive body, biocapitalism is dependent upon what Weinbaum calls the slave episteme—the racial logic that drove four centuries of slave breeding in the Americas and Caribbean. Weinbaum outlines how the slave episteme shapes the practice of reproduction today, especially through use of biotechnology and surrogacy. Engaging with a broad set of texts, from Toni Morrison's Beloved and Octavia Butler's dystopian speculative fiction to black Marxism, histories of slavery, and legal cases involving surrogacy, Weinbaum shows how black feminist contributions from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s constitute a powerful philosophy of history—one that provides the means through which to understand how reproductive slavery haunts the present.

When I called the mayor a “cockwomble”, it didn’t go down well. Jewel Bauer has always been the underdog in whatever situation she lands in, and unfortunately her ‘act now, think later’ approach to life – or, as she puts it, “being the biggest numpty this side of planet Spackbrain” – doesn’t help her chances of beating the odds. Moving to a small town to kick start her life, she finally finds a place, a family to belong to. The group of fellow oddballs who welcome her into their fold, seem to understand her – the tall, broad-shouldered, quiet one a little more so than the rest. When a failed politician with questionable ethics and an even more questionable agenda seeks to establish power in her new community, Jewel knows she must stop him, even if the only political experience she has is insulting mayors. What’s the logical solution? Mount an opposing political campaign with her small family of social misfits, of course. Jewel and her friends quickly find themselves out of their depth fighting a political veteran who knows all the tricks to win voters over, and the resulting comedy of errors threatens to break the group apart. But Jewel’s not afraid of casting a stone at the giant – or several – to see which will fell him. The question is: How devious and dangerous a stone does she need? And will it ruin her first shot at love? Odd Girl Roar is the final of four stand-alone novels in the award-winning Good Life series.
