Pam Ayres - Up In The Attic

Pam Ayres visits the Marine for the first time in her over 40-year career, to talk about her new book of poetry, Up In The Attic, and to sign copies.

Up in the Attic is the brand-new collection of verse from one of the nation’s favourite poets, Pam Ayres, published on 26 September by Ebury Press.

With the same magic that has enchanted her fans for more than four decades, Pam’s new collection is by turns side-splittingly funny, at others so reflective and profound that audiences are moved to tears. From the horror of playing host in ‘The Dinner Party’ and complaints about pub tableware in ‘Don’t Put My Dinner on the Slate!’, to the poignant ‘Up in the Attic’, in which Pam is deluged by memories when searching for an old document, and the sadness of wartime ‘Down The Line’, this new collection will tickle and move readers in equal measure.

Pam will talk for about an hour, after which she will sign copies of her books.
