Sudden Valley Press and Melanie McKerchar invite you to attend the launch of Melanie's second collection: Witch Body. With performances from Tusiata Avia, Ciaran Fox and Jessica Acrus, Melanie will perform excepts from the book. In Witch Body Melanie McKerchar explores what it is to have body that inhabits the margins of what we are taught is good. The witch body is a political statement, the poems in this collection embody the grief, anger, joy and pride of a journey into disability. These poems are fierce and fiery; “a climate changed fuelled-bushfire to burn down all the bullshit”; lush and loving. ME, colonisation, feminism colour McKerchar’s second collection in a rainbow of emotions that leave the reader moved and uplifted.
