Feminitch: Poems for the Modern Witch (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781074013097)

'Feminitch: Poems for the Modern Witch' is not for the faint-of-heart; in New Zealand/Filipina poet Chlo Maria Winstanley's most unapologetic poetry collection yet, Chlo uses feminism, the politics of women's bodies, and the subjugation of female power (both historically and in today's modern context) to create discussions over what it means to be a modern-day "witch". Split into three sections, 'Feminitch' takes you on a journey through time, evoking imagery of the magical and the mystical to compliment this different kind of feminism, while also looking at the nature of healing, and the importance of finding your voice in today's chaotic political climate."In Feminitch Chlo Maria Winstanley eloquently paints a picture of how it feels to be a woman in our current culture. Within the words of her poetry, she cuts to the heart of turbulent global issues and bravely reveals inner truth. I was left feeling a kinship with Chlo as well as hope for the climb of all women. She has the ability to light a passionate fire within her reader that prompts inner reflection and a call to action."-NIKKI VAN EKEREN, AUTHOR OF "GRACE AND GRIT, EMPOWERING POETRY""Feminitch is a window into the endless possibilities of magical realism poetry. Chlo writes history into the present and then rewrites it into a powerful new narrative. Feminitch is a call to women to recognize the magic of a female identity and a female body and is an uplifting anthem to womanhood."-KIMBERLY NGUYEN, AUTHOR OF "FLESH"
