of landscapes  mindscapes  and shifting moods. Here are poems filled with gulls and harbours

wind turbines and superhighways. Sensitive  lyrical  alert to seasons and pressures on our
shared life  McLane registers and gives form to an ambient unease. From Sappho to Constable 
from constellations to microplastics  What You Want is a collection as alive to the cosmos as
it is to our moment. This is McLane's cloudy-sky book: a voyage through lambent autumns and
shining winters  in which an eye looks out on what it longs for  what it loves  and asks: will
it survive the coming heat?
