His collections are published by Nine Arches Press: Beginning with Your Last Breath, The Healing Next Time (shortlisted for the Ted Hughes Award and longlisted for the Jhalak prize) and Living by Troubled Water This event is funded by the Manchester Poetry Research Group and is part of the Poetry Reading Series curated by Helen Mort. Including Isabelle Galleymore, Glyn Maxwell and Roy MacFarlane the series will feature readings and opportunity to ask questions. Professor Mort said ‘I’m interested in how contemporary poets engage with the more?than-human in their work, from Isabel Galleymore’s examination of ‘cuteness’ in an era of hyper-capitalism, to Glyn Maxwell’s new poems on endangered species, to Roy Macfarlane’s experiences as canal poet laureate. How do we give voice to species and place in poetry? What are the challenges of doing so? And can poetry protect and preserve?’
