The English Disease Zusammenfassung

The English Disease Lydia Towsey

The English Disease has been coined as a term to describe everything from missed penalties and vitamin D deficiency - to no sex please, Beatrix Potter, tea and rickets. Exploring contemporary world events, including the international migration crisis and the British EU Referendum, alongside the lived experience of becoming a mother in a year of celebrity death and continental fracture, this collection examines the condition afresh. With zombies, cats, Bowie, break-ups and the weather; eating disorders, buses, queueing, nature, war and nursery rhymes. The English Disease draws upon class, colonialism and other undead matters to explore identity at a time of now... apocalypse?

Über Lydia Towsey

Lydia Towsey is a poet exploring her Hungarian, Welsh/British heritage and her experience of growing up in the multicultural city of Leicester. She draws on her experience as an artist's life model to challenge the idea of the 'passive nude' and discuss the way we look at ourselves, the world and each other. Lydia has won a Decibel commission and been shortlisted for the Bridport Poetry Prize. She has spoken at the House of Lords and presented at Plymouth University's Zombie Symposium.
