Join Forward-nominated poet Catherine Redford for a talk and reading from her debut poetry collection, The Way the Water Held Me.

A mesmeric plunge into the caring, grief, loss, and love experienced by a young widow, The Way the Water Held Me has been described by Fiona Benson as 'a gorgeous wound and wonder of a book' and by Liz Berry as 'a beautiful, heartbreaking book that charts deepest grief and deepest love'.

A Magma Selected Poet, Catherine’s work has also been published in Under the Radar, Propel, New Welsh Reader, and Lighthouse.
