Poetry East
Showcasing the work of well-known contemporary poets, exploring the relationship between poetry and spiritual life. The evening consists in a short led meditation, an interview with the poet, and a reading.
This month's event features Penelope Shuttle. Penelope has published nine collections of poetry including Redgrove’s Wife, which was short-listed for both the Forward and the TS Eliot Prize. Maureen Lipman in the Daily Express described it as 'A wonderful book of poetry of love and loss'. In 2007 she was she was one of three poets on an Arts Council sponsored reading tour of Toronto and New York, and in the same year she was awarded a Cholmondeley Award for Poetry. Her new collection, Sandgrain and Hourglass, is published by Bloodaxe later this year.
