Poet and novelist Lavinia Greenlaw won the Prix du Premier Roman Etranger in 2003 with her first novel, Mary George of Allnorthover, and her poetry has been shortlisted for a number of awards including the TS Eliot Prize, the Forward Prize, the Costa Poetry Award and the Whitbread Poetry Prize. Her latest collection, The Built Moment, explores what we build out of the provisional: beginnings and endings, arrivals and departures, and the moments we fix as memories, fixing too their joy and pain.
