Jenny Rockwell is already a seasoned performer with a sizable following on TikTok and has represented Aotearoa at international poetry slams.
Now she's a published poet with her debut collection, Vultures, a coming-of-age story told in a Southern Gothic mode.
The collection follows her personal growth from growing up in a church community to embracing queer joy.
She joins Emile Donovan.
