About this Event:

Lavinia Greenlaw has published three previous poetry collections, Night Photograph (1993), A World Where News Travelled Slowly (1997) and Minsk (2003), which was shortlisted for the T. S. Eliot, Forward and Whitbread Poetry prizes. Her new collection, The Casual Perfect, continues her explorations of light and the borders of vision. Questions of travel hover around many of these poems – questions which need to be ‘travelled fully’ rather than answered and which involve the overheard and the glimpsed, clues gleaned from traces and external signs. Greenlaw has also published two novels and a memoir.
