AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In 2010, then fourteen-year-old Laura Dekker set forth to become the youngest person to singlehandedly circumnavigate the world by boat. The documentary, Maidentrip (dir. Schlesinge 2013), includes videos Dekker made at sea, in one of which the young adventurer cooks pancakes and flips the first overboard, joking that it’s for Neptune. The opening poem and title of Owen Bullock’s new poetry collection, Pancakes for Neptune, were inspired by Dekker’s literal throwaway yet contextually poignant gesture. There could be no title more apt for the seriously playful suite of poems Bullock’s book presents.'
