Julia Webb's Bird Sisters is a surreal journey through sisterhood and the world of the family via the natural world. Fascinated by the otherness of things, her poems expose places and relationships that are not always entirely comfortable places to exist. Many of them feature transformations of some kind both real and metaphorical: a woman wears a dress of live bees or becomes a bird and family members turn into owls and sparrows.
