Jenny Joseph and more at Aldeburgh Poetry Festival: Friday 3rd November

JENNY JOSEPH
NICK LAIRD
JOHN POWELL WARD


8.00 - 9.45pm • Jubilee Hall • PF12 • £12


"Promise and achievement. From precise and lyrical to expansively philosophical, Jenny Joseph mixes mystery and plain statement in her researches into the human heart. Prize-winning Nick Laird displays a range of subject matter and tone, wit and seriousness, formal adroitness and colloquial panache. With stylistic aplomb, John Powell Ward’s continually inventive poems explore and extend our wider concerns."

The winner of the 2006 Jerwood Aldeburgh First Collection Prize for £3,000 will be announced at the start of this reading.
