Lydia Kennaway was born in New York but has lived in Yorkshire for over 40 years. Published widely in small magazines, she won the Flambard Prize in 2017 and is currently completing an MA in Writing Poetry at Newcastle University. She’s a cellist, so her ear for lyric is not wholly unexpected. But her tonal range is astonishing—here she walks, skips, dances and strides between love, mischief, elegy and . . . rage.
