Raymond Antrobus: The Real and the Imagined

6 Oct 2024

10:30 - 12:30

Ilkley Grammar School

How can poetry play with the line between the real and the imagined? What is poetic truth and how does it relate to the emotional truth of our experience and living in the world? How can poetry imagine ideal worlds whilst being rooted in the “here and now”? Through a series of practical writing exercises and close readings of poems, you’ll explore these big questions in a supportive environment with award-winning poet *Raymond Antrobus.* This event has a limited number of bursary tickets available for people who might not otherwise be able to afford them. You can apply here.There will be a BSL interpreter at this event.
