Inhaltsangabe:

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.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:

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).
