Jane Routh is a poet and photographer who manages woodlands and a flock of geese in the forest of Bowland, North Lancashire. Her first collection iCircumnavigation (2002) was short listed for a Forward Prize and Teach Yourself Mapmaking (2006) is a PBS Recommendation.Most of this sequence was written during the period from the first warnings about Avian Influenza to the outbreak of disease in Norfolk eighteen months later. Paul Farley’s recognition of a ‘haunted pastoral…enlarged by its sense of proximity to the here-and-now’ in Jane Routh’s poetry is represented vividly in this superb pamphlet.
