Thrilled and grateful that my upcoming collection The House of the Interpreter has been awarded a Poetry Book Society Summer 2023 Recommendation! Due to be released in April 2023, it will be sent out to Poetry Book Society subscribers as part of its Summer Mailing.
Written with the help of a Society of Authors’ Foundation Grant, the collection explores an ecological link between the historical oppression of sign language and a misunderstanding of the value of mushrooms and fungi to society, lifeforms that develop in secret, unnoticed, unappreciated, yet whose existence enriches everyday life.
Congratulations to all the poets – Airea D. Matthews; Selima Hill; Majella Kelly; Adam Lowe; Shash Trevett; Seni Seneviratne; Vidyan Ravinthiran & 18thc Scot Alasdair Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair trans. by Taylor Strickland.
