Dirty Laundry

Another strong poetry collection. I love the exploration of sexuality, femininity and sensuality within this collection. This poetry collection has a healthy dash of magical realism and fluidly explores deep emotions through themes of nature and objects within the home. My favourite poems were : Like Chocolate, He Sees Me, Thighs and The Magic Spell. I also loved the intertextual threading of the authors cultural and sexual identity within the collection. This collection is rich and experimental and I really enjoyed reading it!
