| Andrew Motion: Poet Laureate... |
|
The Edge, Much Wenlock,
Friday June 12th.
'Compelling, simple & mysterious'
Sean O'Brien, Sunday Times.
'Motion is a beautiful lyricist unpretentiously and precisely describing those things worth having even as he casts unsettling shadows across
them'
Robert Potts, The Guardian.
Andrew Motion, Poet Laureate until end of April '09, introduces his latest book of poems, 'The Cinder Path' (Faber, 1 May '09) and a new collection
of essays, 'Ways of Life: On Places, Painters and Poets' . He talks about his acclaimed autobiography 'In The Blood - A Memoir of My Childhood'
and answers questions about his writing and his role as Laureate.
Andrew Motion was appointed Poet Laureate in 1999. 'I see myself as town crier, can-opener and flag-waver for poetry'.
His poetry has received the Arvon/Observer Prize, the John Llewelyn Rhys Prize and the Dylan Thomas Prize. He is Professor of Creative
Writing at Royal Holloway and recently co-founded The Poetry Archive.
Tickets are for sale - £12.50/£10.00 - from Wenlock Books (01952 727877) and The Edge Arts Centre (01952 728509)
