The highly popular ‘Under the Influence’ series, where one poet looks at the influence another poet has had on their work, continues in 2008 with Robert Minhinnick ‘under the influence’ of Derek Walcott
West Indian poet Derek Walcott’s collection Sea Grapes inspired Welsh

find that the ‘bwlch’ and ‘gwter’ of his ‘own scrap of coast’ could be poetic.
The host for the event will be the Poetry Society’s Chair, Anne-Marie Fyfe.
The event will be taking place in a new venue - the wonderfully atmospheric and historic Club Room at the Arts Theatre in London's West End, 6/7 Great Newport Street, London, WC2H 7JB.
