  • Review of David Farrier’s Anthropocene Poetics in Criticism (Summer 2021) September 14, 2021
    I wrote a long-ish review of David Farrier’s excellent Anthropocene Poetics for Criticism, back in the Big Before (i.e. January 2020, which kind of illustrates my point about the fast-and-slow times of academic publishing!).

    Translating environments What are the environments of translation? That question has been rattling around in my head, in some form or another, at least since reading the poet Cecilia Vicuña’s statement, in an interview with Jonathan Skinner for his journal ecopoetics: ‘poetry is life’s reserve, a forest for the renewal of language, a biodiversity of […] […]
