'Drift' was commissioned as a live performance in 2012 by Grü/Transtheatre, Geneva, performed at the 2013 Shorelines Literature Festival, Southend-on-sea, UK, and produced as video, voice, and music performances by Penned in the Margins across the UK in 2014. 'Drift' was published as text and prints by Nightboat Books (2014). 'Drift' reinterprets the themes and language of 'The Seafarer' to reimagine stories of refugees crossing the Mediterranean sea, and, according to a review in Publishers Weekly of May 2014, 'toys with the ancient and unfamiliar English'.
