About the show
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. 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.
Featuring
Simon Armitage
