Elemental: Water
£10.00
A celebration of water in all its forms, Elemental gathers new poems by writers of all ages who live in or have a connection with Cambridge. Discover poems about waterfalls and waterbirds and watercolour paintings. Poems about rising tides and threatened chalk streams. Poems that praise the world’s rivers alongside the dishwater in a kitchen sink. Poems embracing Cambridge’s local waters – the Fens, the Cam – as well as distant oceans.
What a pleasure to stretch out here and let these words of water wash over in a sitting. Water, its being and nature, its waterscapes and watermarks are all explored here within many themes, memories and poetic retelling. – Emma Montlake, Environmental Law Foundation
This eye-opening anthology is a small wonder. Its imaginative reckonings of human interactions with the natural world can only help us to appreciate and value water, the matter of life, with increased sensitivity and awe. – Dr Tom Appleby, Blue Marine Foundation
Curated by Mark Wormald, Peter Carpenter & Michael McKimm for Elemental Poetry Cambridge
