The Shaking City by Cath Drake

Cath Drake’s native Australia features large in her debut collection of poems, The Shaking City. Author of a Mslexia magazine prize-winning pamphlet, Drake fashions adroit narratives, lush landscapes and keenly observed character portraits. The Shaking City itself stands for both the unease of the narrator and the swiftly changing times we live in.
Cath Drake, an Australian who lives in London, has been published in anthologies and literary magazines in UK, Australia and US, and performed widely. She has been short-listed for the Venture Poetry Prize and the Manchester Poetry Prize, and came second in the 2017 Resurgence Poetry School eco-poetry prize. 'Sleeping with Rivers' won a Mslexia/Seren poetry pamphlet prize and was a Poetry Book Society choice. 'The Shaking City' is her first full collection. Her work has included environmental writing, award-winning journalism and teaching mindfulness.
