Eva Birch Reviews Foxstruck and Other Collisions by Shari Kocher
2023
single work
review
— Appears in: Cordite Poetry Review , 1 September no. 110 2023;
— Review of Foxstruck 2015 single work poetry'When I first read this book, I was taken aback by all the foxes, deer, and horses. These types of animals seemed cringy, stereotypical, Disney. Why isn’t she talking about kangaroos or koalas? I thought. Native animals have more weight, more depth, more inflections. After reading it again, I realised it was me being cringe, pretending as if colonisation didn’t happen, as if I wasn’t white—a little princess—as if I wasn’t really a person and I didn’t really exist.'
