On Trampolining by Rebecca Perry
When Rebecca Perry was growing up, she competed nationally and internationally as a trampolinist. On Trampolining deftly blends memoir and lyrical nonfiction to explore a time she chose air over earth. Perrys explorations on pain, flight and grief in relation to competitive sport, memory and the body are sensuous, funny, traumatic and tender.
Rebecca Perry was born in 1986 in London. Her first book-length collection, Beauty/Beauty (Bloodaxe Books, 2015), a Poetry Book Society Recommendation, won the Michael Murphy Memorial Prize 2017, and was also shortlisted for the T.S. Eliot Prize, the Fenton Aldeburgh First Collection Prize and the Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry Prize for First Full Collection. Her second book-length collection, Stone Fruit, also a Poetry Book Society Recommendation, was published by Bloodaxe in 2021.
