Spend a wonderful evening of poetry, prose and story telling with the former Poet Laureate, Andrew Motion and award-winning writer Owen O'Neill.
Sir Andrew Motion, will be reading from The Customs House, a stunning new collection in three sections. It poignantly opens with a sequence of war poems, Laurels and Donkeys, drawing on soldiers' experiences from the First World War, through to the recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. He will also read from The Cinder Path, shortlisted for the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry.
Supporting Andrew Motion, will be award-winning writer, actor, comedian and poet, Owen O'Neill, who will be reading from his 2014 poetry volume Licking the Matchbox, which he launched at the 2014 Edinburgh Festival. This collection sees Owen return to his poetry roots with a compilation of bittersweet stories and poems.
The event will conclude with book signings from both writers.
