description
e series, Tressing Motions at the Edge of Mistakes is a debut collection activated by sampling, troubling, and trespassing.

This is a book of what its teenage nonspeaking autistic author Imane Boukaila, calls "tacit treasures." Where manifestos encounter poems and raps encounter essays, the lyric constellations that mark this debut sing in opposition to those "troubled-abled" who would coerce and control disabled lives.

Boukaila offers another way: her "LOL tressed philosophy," her truth. This liberatory philosophy exists at the periphery, thresholding, in all the places where life opens toward neurodivergent revolution. "Treasures thrive in open spreading spaces," she writes. From the muddy streams shimmering with trout, to the space storms in the starry skies, to the tressing that exists between minds, Boukaila offers us a chance to make mistakes, to be messy, to learn and unlearn the languages we use to survive.

Readers seeking "treasures yet to be uncovered" will find this and more in this expansive collection.
