<p>Cat Chong''s<em> Plain Air: An Apology in Transit </em>is a pamphlet in flux, a diary like inner-monologue without a single full stop, charting the speaker''s journeys from A to B yet evoking a bigger change, as the speaker leaves behind student life and wanders into the wider world. <em>''Plain Air...''</em> contains meditations on disability, opioid use, carbon emissions, food waste and veganism backdropped by extinction rebellion protests and the songs of Oh Wonder. It''s a pamphlet of quiet courage, resonant and resolutely rooted in the now.</p>
