In this collection of essays, Lambda Literary Award-winning writer and longtime activist and performance artist Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha explores the politics and realities of disability justice, a movement that centers the lives and leadership of sick and disabled queer, trans, Black, and brown people, with knowledge and gifts for all.

Beyond Survival puts these strategies front and center as real alternatives to today's failed models of confinement and "correction."

A contract marriage meant to end—until love rewrites the terms. Sindhu Rani has spent years being unwanted and labelled as bad luck. When an unexpected proposal from Raja comes her way, she seizes it as a chance for independence—even if it means that she must eventually let him go. Raja has everything—wealth, power, and a past he’d rather forget. Thrust into a marriage he never wanted, he has no intention of making it last. But fate has other plans.
