Last year, Len Pennie’s hotly anticipated debut collection, poyums, was an instant bestseller, nominated for and receiving multiple awards. So we’re absolutely thrilled that she’s already followed it up with a second collection, poyums annaw. These poems are a call to arms, confronting ideas of patriarchy, gender-based violence and societal injustice with equal parts tenderness, quick-wit and righteous fury.
Join Len, in conversation with Festival Director Emma Collins, for a mixture of readings from and discussion about this incisive and fiercely honest collection.
This event will be BSL interpreted.
