Simon Armitage: An Evening with the Poet Laureate

Wednesday 11 March | 7:30pm

Join the Poet Laureate for a lively evening of readings and audience Q&A to celebrate his two latest books. His gorgeous illustrated bestseller Dwell is playfully inspired by the Lost Gardens of Heligan, and in his highly imaginative major new collection, New Cemetery, Simon Armitage makes peace with the dead. These luminous poems are as surprising as they are life-enhancing.
