Disko Bay


I'm delighted to announce that my debut poetry collection, Disko Bay, will be published by Enitharmon Press in November.

The poems in Disko Bay are drawn from my experiences during a residency at Upernavik Museum, Greenland in winter 2010, and subsequent research and travel in the Arctic. The book is now in production: this week I returned the proofs (above) to the publisher. I hope this is the last time in my life I have to proofread Greenlandic!

 Here's a sample poem, as published in the current issue of The Interpreter's House:


I'm offering pre-order copies of the book (and extras including invites to the book launch party in London) as rewards for pledges to my current Kickstarter campaign: for more details see the campaign page.
