Description
Local Interest is a collection of poems that explore the constantly shifting landscapes of south Suffolk and north Essex. Situated at the intersection of salt and freshwater, Emily Hasler's work charts the courses of rivers and lives, revealing habitats lost, created, and threatened.
The poems in Local Interest are a hybrid blend of observation and 'stealing', mapping the complex relationships between people, plants, animals, and the land. They ask questions about boundaries, belonging, invasion, and migration, inviting readers to consider what it means to be local and how we might celebrate dwelling while looking beyond permanence and ownership.
Through its exploration of the natural world, Local Interest reveals moments and millennia as muddled as the elements, where nothing is pure and everything is borrowed. This is a book that wallows at the muddy edges of things, inviting readers to follow it through every breach that was and could be.
