Watersong

Watersong begins with the first of the great cholera epidemics of 19th Century England. Focusing on the poet's home city of Exeter, the poems interlace select details from Exeter's 1832 cholera outbreak, in which over 400 people died, with imagined narratives of the epidemic, and other related episodes in the city,factual and invented.
