Lecturer Kate Feld has new work in the Autumn/Winter 2025 edition of Irish literary journal Banshee. Her essay, ‘Slack Lane’, negotiates the experience of altered cognitive processing after a serious illness, during a winter drive around the Lancashire coast. It’s a haibun – a Japanese form that combines prose writing and haiku.
“Banshee was a great fit for this experiment – the journal has always been open to writing that cuts across genre and format,” Kate says.
Kate’s poetry pamphlet Deeryard was published in 2024 with independent press Death of Workers Whilst Building Skyscrapers. She is currently writing a prose sequence set in lockdown that explores gender, care and agency.
