Lavinia Greenlaw's first collection, Night Photograph, made an immediately favourable impact.

Her second collection, A World Where News Travelled Slowly explores more local and personal matters.

Its central theme is the unpredictable act of communication, from the mechanical to the miraculous.

There are also poems that are concerned with attempts at preservation - plundered relics, the stately home, an iron lung.

This volume serves to confirm the gifts Lavinia Greenlaw showed in her first book.
