Kingdomland, the captivating debut poetry collection by Rachael Allen, unveils a writer of exceptional vision and poetic prowess. Within the realm she crafts, a world brimming with surreal imagery and enigmatic incidents emerges. Unfathomable violences and peculiar metamorphoses take form amidst the eerie twilight, casting a haunting shadow upon the landscape. Yet, amidst this enigmatic tapestry, the essence of earthly life becomes discernible, its everyday sorrows, dysfunctions, and injustices laid bare. Lines between murder, bloodletting, corruption, and consumption blur, merging into a surreal tapestry of existence. Where a pet tarantula or mimic octopus might coexist alongside glands and processed meats, defying conventional boundaries. Landscapes shift and identities dissolve, as the familiar red bricks of the day find their abode within a woman's chest, and the human presence becomes interwoven within the walls. Allen masterfully weaves elements of fiction and ekphrasis, creating a haunting and unforgettable debut that lingers in the reader's mind long after the last page is turned.
