Julieann Campbell

Milk Teeth is a celebration of all that is new and much that is old. A new Derry mother sees the world afresh through the eyes of her child, aware that her own childhood is ‘trapped in videotape’; she revels in musty pages of the Derry Journal file room and rues the day the company phones arrived. Online dating, text-speak and dizzying space-jumps – this is life in the 21st century.

Milk Teeth is Julieann Campbell’s first solo collection of poetry and is infused by her love of place and people. Delving into the depths of the human spirit, Campbell reminds us of the infinite power of memory and pays bold tribute to her home and family, to her city and its history, throughout the prism of their pasts and futures.

‘An important debut collection from one of Ireland’s finest young poets, emotionally intense, spiritually generous, lyrically beautiful… illuminating, at times prompting, provoking, inspiring… truly one to treasure.’
 Felicity McCall. author and founder of Derry Writers Group
