Local poet Ness Owen launches her new volume of poetry ’Naming the Trees’
Sparked by the campaign to save the ancient forest of Penrhos from being turned into a holiday camp, ‘Naming the Trees’ celebrates the natural world, and considers (with some frustration) the various ways it is threatened by human intervention.
Ness has an ongoing conversation with her native language, and in this collection, she draws a link between the disregarding of native language and of native habitat.
Though predominantly written in English, 'Naming the Trees' includes several poems that are presented bilingually – in both English and Welsh.
The winners of the Penrhos Erasure Poetry and photo competitions will also be announced.
Entry: includes refreshments
Time: 6:00pm (doors 1/2 hour before start)
