Yeine and Nahadoth’s Resolve Against Itempas Queer temporality focuses on the ways in which queer lives differ in terms of time, space, and experience. This can be seen metaphorically in many ways throughout Jemisin’s novel, including the ending. Spoilers ahead! 1/6

The Polyamorous Dynamic of The Three Queer temporality, while its focus is on time and the futurity of queerness, can also reflect the spacial and relational dynamics that resist the binary, especially if it does so in a way that helps create a queer future. 1/6

Yeine’s Rebirth and Transformation After being murdered, Yeine exists in liminal and perhaps temporal space between life and death. Itempas’ plan to kill her backfires as the power of Enefa within her allows her to be reborn, and extend her life and opportunities indefinitely. 1/6
