Heart Beats event for Poetry In the City
Tuesday 15th April, 7.30pm, the Bluecoat, School Lane
£3/£2 concessions
Heart Beats Rhyme and Roll Poetry Night in collaboration with Poetry in the City presents an evening of Salt Poets.
Forward Prize nominee Eleanor Rees presents her 2007 collection, Andraste’s Hair: poems of myth, memory, folksong and murder ballad.
Jo Colley’s new collection, Weeping for the Lovely Phantoms, has received widespread critical acclaim with its “distorted landscapes infested with the manifold ghosts of the unresolved and unrequited”. Jo and Elly will be joined by Melanie Challenger whose first collection Galatea offers startling poems whose voice – resolute, compassionate, original – both celebrates and mourns the tensions of human nature.
Plus live music from one of Heart Beats’ favourite bands; swampy blues rockers Jewel Thief.
