Rebecca Elson's collection of poems and journal extracts "A
Responsibility to Awe' was published posthumously by Carcanet at the end
of last year. My review of the book is in the latest issue of "Physics
World", the journal of the Institute of Physics. I guess that's not one
that absolutely everyone on this list subscribes to. But the review is
also on the IoP web site at:

Becky was a renowned astronomer as well as a damn' fine poet. I wrote my
review for PW because I thought it would be good to get some publicity
for poetry there. I think it's the first time the journal has published
a poetry review.
Best,
