Description
Then draws on Alison Brackenbury's lifetime's experience of rural England, its people and its ways, and the threats to its survival.
From the lapwings of her childhood Lincolnshire to the recurrent floods in Gloucestershire, where she has lived for many years, the poems reach urgently to both past and future, finding connections and disconnections.
The signs of a changing climate are emblematic of larger erasures.
The poems keenly focus the beauty and the harshness of the natural world.
They remind us of our own fragility, and our responsibility: 'We are made of water.
But we forgot.'
