Shingle is a long poem which investigates the beaches of North Norfolk through an ecocritical lens. In this piece, Bethany Mitchell inspects the shifting meaning of a place under pressure from natural and human forces. Just as the language of the poem is unstable - never resting in one place or meaning - so too are the coastlines facing the impact of rising sea levels and erosion.
