Girls Are Coming Out of the Woods is an unflinching collection of poems that weave between topics from violence against women to time and memory.

Tishani Doshi's third full collection in English blends visceral power with artistic elegance, re-imagining form as it sifts through detail and emotion.

It followed two earlier, highly praised collections, Everything Begins Elsewhere, published by Bloodaxe in 2012, and her debut, Countries of the Body, winner of the Forward Prize for Best First Collection.

Tishani Doshi was shortlisted for the Ted Hughes Award 2018 for Girls Are Coming Out of the Woods and for her accompanying dance performance of the title poem.

Poetry Book Society Recommendation. Her fourth collection, A God at the Door, was published in 2021.
