About
Join the Poet Laureate for an engaging evening of readings from his two new poetry books: Dwell and New Cemetery. There will be a chance to ask questions.
Simon Armitage's numerous awards include the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry and an Ivor Novello.
The Poet Laureate makes peace with the dead in his highly imaginative and wide-ranging major new collection New Cemetery. These luminous and wry poems are as surprising as they are life-enhancing.
Dwell, a recent Sunday Times bestseller playfully inspired by the Lost Gardens of Heligan, is gorgeously colour-illustrated.
Given the popularity of Simon's previous visits to Seamus Heaney HomePlace early booking is recommended.
'Armitage has the rare gift of both inciting an emotional reaction and finding the most dry, arid humour from his rich life experience. It's a winning formula' Now Then Magazine.
'It takes the sensibility of an exceptionally skilled poet' The Observer on New Cemetery
