    Summary: 
    Winner of the Jessie Mackay Best First Book of Poetry Award Hilarious, intimate, moving, and virtuosic, the voice of Tayi Tibble is one of most exciting in poetry today. In Poukahangatus (pronounced Pocahontas ), her debut volume, Tibble challenges a dazzling array of mythologies - Greek, Maori, feminist kiwi - peeling them apart, respinning them in modern terms. Her poems move from rhythmic discussions of the Kardashians, sugar daddies, and Twilight to exquisite renderings of the natural world and precise emotions. 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. Poem 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 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, Poukahangatus announces the presence of a surpassingly daring new poet.
