Them! by Harry Josephine Giles is a challenging and subversive collection of poems about trans life as it is lived today, through the lenses of work, technology and ecology. Witty, candid, furious, and always compelling, Them! negotiates the fraught and fruitful space between the worlds of online and the outside, and how they fuse and diverge in the imagination. Giles visual poetics create an unusually dynamic reading experience as she finds new ways to sing, shout and strike in the cracks of whats possible. At a time when trans rights are to the fore in public discourse, Them! is a zestful poetic intervention from one of this generations most necessary poets.
