Poetry at the Room

Contact: http://the-room.org.uk/performances/poetry

We return in March with Simon Barraclough, Tim Wells, Alan Brownjohn, Lara Popovic, Anouche Sherman.

Simon Barraclough is a poet, writer, and tutor. He is the author of Los Alamos Mon Amour (2008), Bonjour Tetris (2010), Neptune Blue (2011), and Sunspots (2015).

Tim Wells has cultivated a laugh that’s more like a caress. He walks properly. He does not slouch, shuffle or stumble about. He knows that wide, floating trousers are only good for wearing on a veranda with a cocktail in your hand.

Alan Brownjohn says, 'I've always been concerned to get into [my poetry] the details of daily living which portray - or betray - human strengths and weaknesses and oddities.'

Lara Popovic is a poet based in London. Her work is published in magazines across the U.K and U.S. including Adanna, Vox Mom, Black and Blue, La Reata and Agenda. Lara is working on her next collection and entertaining thoughts of human interaction.

Anouche Sherman was born in Paris and spend her childhood in both Paris and Jerusalem. She writes short prose and poetry in both French and English, translates, and is a Multimedia artist.
