Katherine’s Carcanet Collection

Squad grad Katherine Horrex’s debut collection has been published by Manchester-based press Carcanet. Growlery conjures a place haunted by flooded villages, broken ankles, ovarian health and factories. It dwells on a world of civic tensions, in the twilit zone between city and country, the human and the natural. Here, Brexit is a city with streets ‘worn into themselves like grafted skin’, corpse flowers bloom in America, and urban foundations crumble into cisterns.

Katherine has posted  a blog for Carcanet on writing the book.
