Taryn Hubbard
April 29th, 2026
Following on from her debut poetry collection Desire Path (Talon, 2022) about life in the suburbs from girlhood to motherhood, and her novel The Very Good Best Friend (Now or Never, 2025), Taryn Hubbard’s second poetry collection, Beautiful Unknown Future (Talon $19.95) examines parenting in times of uncertainty. Written while Hubbard’s children were young, the new poems describe messy feelings about motherhood and care, the climate crisis, family ghosts and office dynamics. Hubbard layers domestic life chaos with corporate world detachment to examine the joys and complexities of these competing spaces while looking to a future centred around tenderness, resilience and love. 9781772016482
