Fleur Adcock remembered in RSL REVIEW 2025

My piece about Fleur for The Royal Society of Literature’s Review 2025.

I was asked to write about my aunt Fleur Adcock’s work and legacy, for the ‘Fellows Remembered’ section of The Royal Society of Literature’s Review 2025.

It was quite a challenge, summarising all of Fleur’s brilliant achievements. Thank you to family, Greg, Andrew and Sarah, for reading and okaying what I wrote.

I’m also grateful to these three writers for crucial feedback: Kristen Phillips, Alan McCormick and my mother, Fleur’s sister, Marilyn Duckworth.
