ck nowledgements Emily napped while I was writing, and when she woke up she was indulgent when I read her what I’d written. I’m grateful to Daphne Astor, James Brookes, Will Burns, Adam Crothers, Katy Evans-Bush, Dai George, David Harsent, Marius Kociejowski, Maureen McLane, Sam Quill, Patrick Davidson Roberts, Ben Rogers, Dec Ryan, Anna Selby, Robert Selby, Martha Sprackland, Claudine Toutoungi, Rebecca Watts, Joe Williams, James Womack and Alex Wong, for advice and encouragement. Some of these poems have been previously published in PN Review, The World Speaking Back (Boiler House Press, 2018), Pinecoast (Hazel Press, 2021), and broadcast on BBC Radio Cambridgeshire. ‘The Lecture Notes’ was written for S.J. Fowler’s ‘Enemies’ project. Thank you also to Eli Lischka for her help with the Spanish, to Sarah for reminding me of what and how much looks the same from the air, and to everyone at the LRB Bookshop and Carcanet Press. 71
