About this Event

This event will be a hybrid event. To join us online, please see the . If you are attending online, there’s no need to book a ticket.

Join us to celebrate the launch of Jean Sprackland’s Goyle, Chert, Mire. Described by the publisher as ‘a book-length sequence of poems about place, time, illness and recovery,’ the collection unfolds across three sections, each shaped by a distinctive element of the Blackdown Hills – and in particular the remote spring line valley where the poet lives.

Jean will be in conversation with Dr Martin Kratz and sharing some readings from her new collection.
