Written over 12 months, from 23 September 2006 to 14 September 2007, Carol Watts' sequence of poems explores the freight of a year with an ear to its future. Fragments and "cuts" of time and memory, light, sound, weather, the voices of children. John Clare wandering among rinds of a shoe-making village and city parakeets. Small series, detonating. The working through of an occasional tense, its cost, its serious music, its gift. This is Carol Watts' second poetry collection for Reality Street, the first having been "Wrack" (2007).

Autorenporträt
Carol Watts was until recently Professor at the University of Sussex. Her writing attends to lived and often hidden and entangled histories of extraction, migration and community, from weedy marginal land (Dockfield, Equipage 2017) to the planetary (Sundog, Veer 2013 and Where Blue Light Falls, Shearsman, 2018). Her most recent poetry collection Kelptown (Shearsman, 2020) explored the UK south coast as a hallucinatory and adaptive zone of inundation. Her last, Mimic Pond, documents the life of a seasonal pond on London's Blackheath, a place associated over centuries with protest and gatherings.
