Exact Colour of Snow articulates a complicit, playful commentary on our mundane interactions with the natural world. Notes, fragments and glimpsed biographies explore how we ignore our fragile landscape even while grounded in its rhythms, shapes and colours. Skeining through the fashion and factories of global import export and dye making, we travel back to soil, plants and animals. A route that offers different harvests: clearing bombs to erect North Sea windmills in the Mesolithic sludge of Doggerland, unseasonal Abbotsford oranges, and the production of fine leather for golf gloves from hairsheep in Yemen and North Africa. Behind the scenes in these poems, the excluded - often mothers or young women - observe and study to understand the whole shape of things. The final colour of snow in this collection is green. Exact Colour of Snow follows Bridget Khursheed's debut, The Last Days of Petrol, which was hailed by Joyce McMillan, of The Scotsman, as "...brave, brilliant and chilling poetry, which almost forces a recognition of the new precarity of human life on earth".
