We Saw It All Happen – Julian Bishop

Julian Bishop raises ‘an army of stubborn weeds’ in this dark but sometimes humorous Ecopoetry collection. From the bowels of Whitechapel in London, to the intricacies of jellyfish, Bishop brings to life the most important fight known to man: climate change, documenting the changes to our planet and the attitudes of humanity across the globe towards it.

"You can almost feel your own breath fluttering while you read it, such is the skill of the writing"

- Seán Hewitt, Poets & Players Prize Judge

“A poignant, bubbling, anguished celebration of nature loved and lost.”         

- Professor Dave Goulson, Author of Silent Earth, Averting The Insect Apocalypse
