Jane Routh's 'Falling Into Pieces' reflects on life enriched by the land she lives with and looks after. This is a book about a small area of land and its wildlife, work and weathers over four decades. At its heart is a month by month celebration of seasonal shifts - their feel, their smell, their mood. But the writing also has a wider sweep, deftly considering the place of the individual in the evolving story of land use.
Jane Routh manages woodlands and a flock of geese in the Forest of Bowland, North Lancashire, where she's lived for over thirty years. She taught and exhibited photography for several years, but more recently most of her creative work has been in writing - non-fiction, as well as poetry.
Jane Routh's fourth full collection combines vivid, musical writing and acute perception of the natural world. Ranging across land and land art, birds, buildings and bodies, roads, trees and winds, her distinctive poems investigate memory and the changes which overtake us all. These poems listen to the nights, but also to the darker places in our lives and - in the face of environmental and personal loss - celebrate the moments of resilience "that keep mortality at bay".
