Amphibian by Georgie Henley
Amphibian by Georgie Henley
Praise for Amphibian
Georgie Henley’s poems are intricate, feminist, and embodied. They fill the ear and imagination with a felt-sense of a soundscape and bodyscape, where the human and more-than-human meet, merge, and entangle. Georgie creates timeless worlds, alive with multiple species and eros, each poem pulses – opening up and closing shut like a bud.
Anna Selby
To read Georgie Henley’s Amphibian is to enter a space of mythic brightness. These are poems which ache on the page, which bare their strength through the visceral lyric. This is a thrilling debut which illuminates fear, shame, sensuality, and love through poetry which asserts that ‘time is told through our body’.
Ella Duffy
Georgie Henley is a poet with a bent for the embodied and breathlessly sensual. At turns wry and despairing, then full of yearning and thwarted desire, this pamphlet has many faces. Unafraid to be playful and straight-up weird, Henley takes the reader on many delicious digressions.
