Real Cute Danger, Angela Clelands third collection, explores the experience of giving birth and becoming a parent "through the prism of horror and science fiction". Poems like Im in Costa with the other new mums again deftly knock out the surfaces of a fake empire, a coffee shop, by comparing the setting with the realness of human flesh: "I know what it is to be meat, I am an animal, in the wild I would be dead right now." Cleland claws away at the hysteria surrounding the female body in childbirth with her wildness and extravagant, unflinching, beauty.
