Matthew Paul will be reading from his new collection The Last Corinthians. He will be joined by guest readers Ian Parks, Mat Riches and Victoria Lampert.

Matthew Paul hails from South London, lives in South Yorkshire and worked for many years in local authority children’s services. His first collection, The Evening Entertainment , was published by Eyewear in 2017. His haiku books,The Regulars (2006) and The Lammas Lands
(2015) and co-written/edited (with John Barlow) anthology Wing Beats
(2008), were published by Snapshot Press. His reviews and essays regularly appear in journals. He has contributed to the Guardian’s ‘Country Diary’ column.

Clare Pollard called the poems in Matthew Paul’s debut ‘delightful’ and ‘dazzling’. This new collection veers psychedelically through history, pausing for quieter moments. Its themes include: art; class; sexuality; childhood and youth; work; fauna and flora; domesticity; gardening; end of life; and, above all, the ghosts which insist on interrupting thought.
