The Air Year is a time of flight, transition and suspension:
signatures scribbled on the sky. Bird's speakers exist in a state
of unrest, trapped in a liminal place between take-off and landing,
undeniably lost. Love is uncontrollable, joy comes and goes at
hurricane speed. They walk to the cliff edge, close their eyes and
step out into the air. Caroline Bird has five previous collections
published by Carcanet. Her fifth collection, In These Days of
Prohibition, was shortlisted for the 2017 T.S. Eliot Prize and the
Ted Hughes Award.
