She set out to run as a poet, not as an athlete, to use the rhythms of her own body as a means of understanding and connecting to the rhythms of the river’s body of water, under threat of environmental ruin. Mer de Glace, which won the Szymborska Award, is the introduction to her remarkable journey. A profound meditation on the porosity, reactivity and receptivity of both the body and the natural world, the collection reveals their deep interdependence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"read_more_content\" class=\"entry-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‘This is ecopoetry at its most profound and informal, challenging and pleasurable.’\u003cbr\u003e— Fiona Sampson, Guardian\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‘Małgorzata Lebda’s poetry never ceases to amaze the reader.
