In \u003ci\u003ePoukahangatus\u003c\/i\u003e (pronounced 'Pocahontas'), her debut volume, Tibble challenges a dazzling array of mythologies - Greek, Maori, feminist, kiwi -  peeling them apart and respinning them in modern terms. Her poems move from rhythmic discussions of the Kardashians, sugar daddies and \u003ci\u003eTwilight\u003c\/i\u003e to exquisite renderings of precise emotions and the natural world alike. Tibble is also a master narrator of teenage womanhood, its exhilarating highs and devastating lows; her high-camp aesthetics chart the overflowing beauty, irony and ruination of her surroundings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePoem by poem, Tibble carves out a bold new way of engaging history without merely telling it, of straddling modernity and ancestry, desire and exploitation. These are warm, provocative and profoundly original poems, written from a world in which the effects of colonization, land, work and gender are intimately and insidiously connected. Along the way, Tibble scrutinizes perception and asks how she as a Maori woman fits into trends, stereotypes and popular culture. With language that is at once colourful, passionate and laugh-out-loud funny, \u003ci\u003ePoukahangatus\u003c\/i\u003e announces the presence of a surpassingly daring new poet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54238162452824,"sku":"9781802060591","price":17.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781802060591_f364653b-7c03-416e-b40b-e29ed9120aaf.jpg?v=1764550837","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/poukahangatus","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
