The Meanwhile Sites takes its name from a term used increasingly by urban planners to refer to locations that are earmarked for future development, it is a book about places like this, and situations like this, and their relationships with people, and the oppositions of marginality against mainstream, renewability against finitude, utility against intangible value, and the changing forms of physical, cultural and psychological landscapes in a post-industrial age.

Pete Green lives in Sheffield and started to write poetry in 2014. Their debut pamphlet Sheffield Almanac, published by Longbarrow Press in 2017, is described by Pete as "a poem in four chapters about rivers, rain, relocation, and regeneration, exploring the industrial past and post-industrial future of my adopted home city". In 2019 they were shortlisted for the Brotherton Poetry Prize. A second pamphlet, Hemisphere, is forthcoming from Longbarrow in 2021. As a musician and songwriter Pete fronts the indiepop band The Sweet Nothings and has released two solo albums, the more recent being We're Never Going Home (Atomic Beat Records, 2016).

Paperback. Etat : New. What is a city for? How long do the vibrations persist from an economic shock wave, or a guitar chord? Is anything really permanent? The 'meanwhile site' is a place where change becomes a design feature, and Pete Green's remarkable debut collection commemorates the transient and the marginal - from the emergency housing made of shipping containers to crumbling coastal paths and sea stacks; from the villages left isolated by railway closures to the predicament of the new generations disenfranchised by the march of neoliberalism. With the temporary comes hope of renewal, though, and alternatives to a disrupted, rootless culture might emerge in a Neolithic stone circle, or a circle of friends. Keenly observed, deft and humane, these are poems for our age of precarity. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781784632694
