The fifty-six poems that comprise The Steel Garden respond to the closure of the Glengarnock Steelworks. Lorna J. Waite was brought up close to the steelworks and in the shadow of their closure in 1985. She evokes the sulphur of the furnaces and the comradeship of the workers, elegises the losses in human and community terms, and proposes strategies for compensation and transformation.
