Skinny Dipping in Tiger Country - Maithreyi Hughes

In her debut collection of poetry, award-winning translator and novelist Maithreyi Hughes explores what it means to be vulnerable and curious in the wilderness of civilisation. Politics becomes an instinctive expression of morality; animals are fellow travellers; travel a form of detachment rather than escape. Myth and irony share a lens; belonging folds into longing. This is a fierce, daring introduction to an incisive and eloquent poetic voice, claiming the English language as both microscope and mirror.
