Reviews
Valin's vibrant imagery, skillful use of alliteration, and long-form narrative style guide the reader through portals and incantations that wrench open a new world, inviting a reimagining of how we relate beyond sexist, colonial constraints., In Shapeshifters, Délani Valin cracks open pop culture and history to transform being into a mutable, kaleidoscopic experience. Deftly wielding vivid personae, the poet refuses to "bifurcate [her] history" and, instead, forges a stunning poetic tapestry that welcomes every stray strand of personal and collective stories., "Shapeshifters is a fearless, powerful debut by an important and challenging new voice. In poems that range from the lyric to the surreal, the pop-culture monologue to the extended confessional, Délani Valin's rich lines are precise, complex and often startling. "There are no safe spaces / There never were," Valin writes, as she explores what it is to wrestle with the expectations and identities projected onto us by others, what is live in our bodies and in our minds, to struggle with our memories, to tell our stories, to yearn to be plant, animal, earth. All of this, and a lesson in snail hygiene.", Shapeshifters is a fearless, powerful debut by an important and challenging new voice.

Reading them feels like coming home, settling down with a Coke Zero, and realizing you're in someone else's house. I want to read everything Valin writes.

Synopsis
In Shapeshifters, Délani Valin explores the cost of finding the perfect mask. Through a lens of urban Métis experience and neurodivergence, Valin takes on a series of personas as an act of empathy as resistance. Some personas are capitalist mascots like the Starbucks siren, Barbie and the Michelin Man, who confide the hopes and frustrations that lay hidden behind their relentless public enthusiasm. Others include psychiatric diagnoses like hypochondria, autism and depression, and unlikely archetypes such as a woman who becomes a land mass by ending the quest to shrink herself. In more confessional poems, the pressure to find relief from otherness often leads to magical thinking: portals, flight, telepathy and incantations all become metaphors for survival. Shapeshifters maps ways in which an individual can attempt to fit into a world that is inhospitable to them, and makes a case to shift the shape of that world., Inspired by her experience as a neurodivergent Indigenous woman, Délani Valin's poems explore the concept of authenticity by experimenting with identities and personas in this kaleidoscopic debut.
