In All The Men I Never Married, Kim Moore reckons with the harms and coercions of being female in a male-dominant world. Moore's 2023 collection of lyric essays, Are You Judging Me Yet? Poetry and Everyday Sexism, turns the spotlight onto poetry and performance itself. Reflecting on responses to All the Men I Never Married, Moore examines the dynamics of performing in public as a female poet.
Iona Lee's debut collection Anamnesis charts a descent into adulthood, exploring truth and taletelling, art and artifice. Characterised by a deep love of language, its music and its magic, Anamnesis reflects on memory, the future and other hauntings.
In a world still set to undo and unmake the experiences of women, these precise and honest works are as welcome as ever.
