Take a walk on the wild side with two adventurous and anarchic poets. Phil Bowen is author of Variety’s Hammer, Starfly and Nowhere’s Far – New & Selected Poems. His 20-minute oral poem, All the Stuff, was described as a “work of genius” by John Cooper Clarke. Selima Hill said “reading him is like suddenly being asked to dance”. Phil reads from his ebullient new collection This Here Guitar, thirty-three poems infused with the spirit of Rock ‘n’ Roll. Rory Waterman’s first collection Tonight the Summer’s Over (Carcanet) was shortlisted for the Seamus Heaney Prize 2014 (“A convincing, affecting collection” - Stand.) Rory reads from his hard-hitting and dramatic pamphlet Brexit Day on the Balmoral Estate (“Great poetry, but poetry to be read with a health warning” - Stride).
