Nancy Campbell is a Scottish writer whose work charts landscape, language and memory. In 2020 she received the Royal Geographical Society Ness Award for environmental writing, including works of non-fiction (The Library of Ice), poetry (Disko Bay) and artist’s books (How to Say ‘I Love You’ in Greenlandic). In 2018 Nancy was appointed the UK’s Canal Laureate by The Poetry Society and the Canal & River Trust. Many of the poems written during her two-year laureateship were installed along the waterways where they could be seen projected on wharves at night, stencilled on towpaths, or engraved into fish gates; they are collected in the pamphlet Navigations. Nancy is currently Visiting Professor of Literature at the Free University of Berlin.
