Description
Milk Teeth by Rae White is the winner of the 2017 Thomas Shapcott Prize for Poetry.
In the bright mirror morning, I scratch at flaked skin & peel lengths of stringy flesh to expose crackle quartz jutting from my neck.
In this highly original debut collection, Rae White's edgy and playful poems challenge notions of category, identity, form and gender. Bodies transform, nature morphs and words dart and shift. White's wise and provocative poems define new ways, new languages.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Milk Teeth by Rae White is acclaimed for its innovative and engaging poetry, combining modernist techniques with accessibility. The collection explores themes of transformation and power in the gendered body with a unique, eerie energy. It's described as both provocative and readable, offering experiences that are both unsettling and vibrant.
