Nancy Campbell spent a year travelling the 2,000 miles of the UK’s waterways on foot, bicycle and by kayak, writing as she went. As poet, and Canal Laureate, she was able to draw on wide-ranging experience of conservation and climate science in Switzerland, Iceland and Arctic Greenland.
And so her startling poems emerge from the elements—air, fire, earth and water—bringing with them fireworks, melody, consolation, and love.
