This collection thinks about two main things: the efforts we make as individuals to find some form of connection between ourselves, and the efforts we make as a group to connect to the environment we live in. Written in the shadow of the climate crisis and the pandemic years, the poems work hard to find some points of hope and unity against a shared background of disruption and collapse, a background to which we are often wilfully blind.

James Womack was born in 1979. He is the author of three previous collections of poetry with Carcanet: Misprint (2012), On Trust: A Book of Lies (2017) and Homunculus (2020). He is also an award-winning translator, and has translated widely from Spanish and Russian, including works by Vladimir Mayakovsky (' Vladimir Mayakovsky' and Other Poems, Poetry Book Society Translation Choice Winter 2016), Aleksandr Tvardovsky, Manuel Vilas and Camilo Jose Cela. He lives in Cambridge.
