= Bodymind
=Eli Clare is one of the first scholars to popularize the concept of bodymind. Along with Margaret Price, Clare proposed that the bodymind expresses the interrelatedness of mental and physical processes. Clare uses bodymind in his work Brilliant Imperfection as a way to resist common Western assumptions that the body and mind are separate entities, or that the mind is "superior" to the body.
Other prominent scholars to theorize on bodymind include Price, Sami Schalk, Gloria Anzaldua, and Alyson Patsavas.

= Exile and Pride: Disability, Queerness, and Liberation
=Exile and Pride: Disability, Queerness, and Liberation is an autobiographical collection of essays first published by South End Press in 1999 and 2009 and republished by Duke University Press in 2015. Exile and Pride's expanded edition, published in 2009, was a finalist for Foreword's 2009 INDIES Book of the Year Award. The 2015 edition includes a foreword by Aurora Levins Morales and an afterword by Dean Spade.
Exile and Pride discusses Clare's experiences as a "white disabled genderqueer activist/writer" and explores the meaning of "home" through autobiographical narratives while covering the topics of oppression, power, resistance, environmental destruction, capitalism, sexuality, institutional violence, gender, and social justice more generally.
= The Marrow's Telling: Words in Motion
=The Marrow's Telling: Words in Motion is a collection of poetry published by Homofactus Press in 2007, though many of the poems had been previously published. The collection was a Lambda Literary Award finalist in 2007.
In this work, Eli Clare "explores how bodies carry history and identity over time". The poems include contradiction and repetition as they discuss the themes of disability, race, gender, violence, and sexuality.
= Brilliant Imperfection: Grappling with Cure
=Brilliant Imperfection: Grappling with Cure was published by Duke University Press in 2017. In 2018, Brilliant Imperfection won the Publishing Triangle's Randy Shilts Award for Gay Nonfiction.
In Brilliant Imperfection, Eli Clare explores the concept of cure, "the deeply held belief that body-minds considered broken need to be fixed," while using memoir, history, and critical analysis to discuss the intersectionality of race, disability, sexuality, class, and gender, as well as environmental politics. Clare is one of the first scholars to popularize the concept of bodymind, which he uses in Brilliant Imperfection as a way to resist common Western assumptions that the body and mind are separate entities or that the mind is "superior" to the body.
Personal life
Eli Clare has cerebral palsy and identifies as genderqueer and as a trans man. He currently lives near Lake Champlain in Vermont.
