Organiser: Colpitts Poetry/Durham LitFest
Start time: 19:30 Fri 6 Oct 2006
Website: www.literaturefestival.co.uk
Trinidad-born writer and musician Anthony Joseph is one of the UK's most exciting voices. His dazzling performance art combines a post-modern sensibility with calypso rhythms, hip-hop and jazz and influences as diverse as science-fiction, surrealism and linguistics. He has two poetry collections to his name, Desafinado (1994) and Teragaton (1997), as well as the spoken-word CDs Liquid Textology and The Spasm Band, and he'll also be reading from his hot new debut novel The African Origins of UFOs (Salt), an experimental work of metafiction, myth and science fiction - an `afropsychadelicnoir'. This evening will sing!
