Firewalk

Katherine Bitney’s fourth collection of poetry, Firewalk, erupts into a shamanistic journey through mind, body and spirit. With the power of drum and dance Bitney confronts the discourses of psychology and the arrogant narratives of our modern healing industry. As she strips away the layers of abstraction she probes deeper, documenting the body as it shifts and twists before the primal core is exposed. Firewalk both questions our modern way of living and seeks to rediscover the central nature of humanity. In doing so she clears a place that we can call home.
