Kate Jennings 1996 Snake (Minerva)

A slithery book that began as a poem and it reads that way. ‘Girlie reads books like a caterpillar eating its way through the leaves on a tree.’ (93). A series of hard slaps with chapters that are sometimes one short paragraph long.

Cover detail: ‘necessary to the balance of nature’ (109)
