Antony Joseph & the Beehive Poets

19:00 - 21:00

City Library

Join award-winning Trinidad-born poet, novelist, academic, and musician Anthony Joseph for a spellbinding evening of poetry and storytelling, shared alongside the brilliant Beehive Poets collective. 

Joseph will perform selections from his acclaimed poetry, including work from his T. S. Eliot Prize-winning collection Sonnets for Albert—a luminous exploration of family, memory, and identity. This will be followed by a reading of his evocative and richly textured short stories, bringing his celebrated narrative voice to the stage. 

A rare opportunity to experience the full range of one of contemporary literature’s most dynamic voices, alongside some of Bradford’s finest local poets.
