Skinny Dip Poetry
edited by Susan Paris & Kate De Goldi

“Bold and timely. A magnificent range of form from some of our best contemporary voices,” says Hera Lindsay Bird.

The school year. We all know what to expect: the nits, the crush, the history lessons and rainy-day lunchtimes. But what happens when you send a bunch of poets to school? They’ll loiter in corners and see between the lines, then give a crash course on how to play with poetic form.

Skinny Dip is a collection of all-new poetry for young readers from all the writers we love: Sam Duckor-Jones, essa may ranapiri, Bill Manhire, Anahera Gildea, Amy McDaid, Kōtuku Titihuia Nuttall, Ben Brown, Ashleigh Young, Rata Gordon, Dinah Hawken, Oscar Upperton, Nina Mingya Poweles, James Brown, Victor Rodger, Tim Upperton, Lynley Edmeades, Freya Daly Sadgrove, Renee Liang, Amber Esau, Nick Ascroft, Vanessa Mei Crofskey, and Jane Arthur.
