FREE Lunch Time Poetry at Leighton-Linslade: Stewart and Goodwin
FREE Lunch Time Poetry at Leighton-Linslade
Arts Festival May 2007
May 8: Buzz Words (Gavin Stewart)
A rare live-performance from prize-winning poet Gavin Stewart. Fellow poet Neil Fulwood praised his work observing:-
"I found in Gavin Stewart's poetry humanity, insight, experience, a wealth of subtle phraseology, a sense of nostalgia unsullied by sentimentality, and an almost heartbreaking use of understatement."
Enjoy work from his previous collections Biology Lessons (1999) and Sounding Out (2001), and new material from his forthcoming collection, Ripening.
May 15: Voltage (Mark Goodwin)
Climber and award winning poet Mark Goodwin invites you on an exploration of high voltage verbs and linguistic innovation. His poetry ranges from direct and accessible to ambiguous and playful. The focus today is: being in as well as being alive landscape.
Mark was BBC Wildlife Poet of The Year 2003, and has published over 170 poems in magazines and ezines. He often collaborates with other artists and writers.
