The Exclusion Zone
About this book
'You don' t remember this place. This land could be arid or hungry or wet or rot. That does not matter. Your memory can' t tell you what no longer exists.' Beginning in the nuclear waste deposits of our future, The Exclusion Zone bears witness in a language degrading faster than the radioactive byproducts of our history and our present. At once prophecy and annihilation, these poems speak with ghosts, questioning how our words – and what they seek to preserve – can contend with the inevitability of their own decay. Nuclear materials drift throughout this collection, metastasising and resisting their own disposal. The Exclusion Zone is a poetry of warning, of sé ance, of incantation – a poetry of what survives, where the apocalypse-to-be manifests in human tenderness and vulnerability.
