Indigenous writer reflects on poetry collection Skin
Original: “Skin is such an accomplishment for me, and I love it so much… Every time I look at it, it's something new that I didn't
An Indigenous writer is speaking about their poetry collection Skin, calling it a personal accomplishment and saying each reading reveals something new they did not realize they had put into the work. The remarks accompany coverage of how scars and trauma are explored 'in flesh' through the poetry. Readers in First Nations literary circles are sharing the interview and discussing how the collection turns personal and collective trauma into art.
Why now: New coverage of a First Nations poetry collection about trauma is drawing attention in Indigenous literary communities.
