I found the poems in the fields. And only wrote them down - John Clare John Clare was a nineteenth-century poet who had little formal education but who wrote about his lived experience of nature in detailed and beautiful poems. He also lamented changes in the agrarian world which foreshadow present day concerns about loss of habitat. He wrote movingly about his own sense of alienation and profound loneliness. Come and join Jan in a guided exploration of Clare’s poetry, his life and the times he lived in. Jan was a teacher of English for over 40 years and has had her poems published in various anthologies. She has an MA in English Literature and chairs various poetry groups in person and online. Ticket price includes tea or coffee and cake! Information Source: Poetry Pharmacy | eventbrite

From the bestselling author of THE TATTOOIST OF AUSCHWITZ comes a heartbreaking contemporary novel of a dying teenager's final wish, a lonely young man's journey towards connection, and the unexpected friendship they find together. Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Jodi Picoult, and John Green. Jesse is 15. She loves her friends, her little brother and her parents - even when they're arguing, which feels like constantly these days. But most of all, she loves playing video games. Even from her hospital bed. Alex is 29. He doesn't love a lot of things. To be honest, he's not really sure he knows how to. His desk at work, as VR games designer, is empty, much like his life feels sometimes. Then Jesse makes a wish. A simple one: a video experience made of her life, something to be there, just in case she isn't. One loving teenager. One lonely adult. Which one will get the happy ending? Heather Morris is an international no.1 bestseller and has sold over 18 million copies worldwide. This brand-new novel is a fresh direction for her but speaks to all the themes that you know and love her for: hope in the darkest of places, family, love and courage.

Join us for an evening with award winning writer, broadcaster and journalist Damian Barr as he talks about his new novel, The Two Roberts, reimagining one of the strongest and most passionate love stories of modern British art. 'He will stay like this forever, Robert's arm draped round him. They will be forever twenty.' Scotland, 1933. Bobby MacBryde is on his way. After years grafting at Lees Boot Factory, he's off to the Glasgow School of Art, to his future. On his first day he will meet another Robert, a quiet man with loose dark curls - and never leave his side. Together they will spend every penny and every minute devouring Glasgow - its botanical gardens, the Barras market, a whole hidden city - all the while loving each other behind closed doors. With the world on the brink of war, their unrivalled talent will take them to Paris, Rome, London. They will become stars as the bombs fall, hosting wild parties with the likes of Lucian Freud, Francis Bacon and Elizabeth Smart. But the brightest stars burn fastest. Stunningly reimagined, The Two Roberts is a profoundly moving story of devotion and obsession, art and class. It is a love letter to MacBryde and Colquhoun, the almost-forgotten artists who tried to change the way the world sees - and paid a devastating price. Event Format: Author talk 'in conversation' followed by audience Q&A and book signing Tickets: £10 without book (Admits One, ticket redeemable against a signed copy of The Two Roberts) or £19 with book (Admits One, includes a signed copy of The Two Roberts).

Join poet Jonathan Davidson for a Poetry Walk starting and finishing at The Poetry Pharmac Lab in Bishop's Castle. Using a circular route, we will stroll along small roads and footpaths, stopping now and then to hear some poems read aloud in the open air. Copies of poems – by various carefully selected poets – will be provided, although participants are welcome to bring along short poems of their own to share. While the walk will only be a few kilometres and therefore not too strenuous, it will involve stiles and quite possibly mud, so participants will be asked to bring along suitable footwear and clothing. We’ll walk at the pace of the slowest, the better to chat and enjoy the views. The ticket includes a drink and cake at journey’s end and numbers will be limited to 12 participants. Jonathan Davidson is a poet of the English Midlands with an enthusiasm for other people’s poems and the great outdoors. His most recent books are A Commonplace – Apples, Bricks & Other People’s Poems , and Downland – a collaboration with the visual artist Anna Dillon. His poetry memoir, On Poetry – Jonathan Davidson , continues to divide opinion. His weekly Out of Office poems (and monthly digest of the same) make good poems by others more widely known.

Jerskin Fendrix: Live. . . In Shropshire Jerskin Fendrix’s 2020 debut Winterreise centred him among a rising group of artists from the the South London Windmill scene, and captured the imagination of director Yorgos Lanthimos , who tapped Jerskin to score Poor Things . The experimental artist was quickly catapulted to international acclaim, with the score receiving BAFTA , Oscar and Golden Globe nominations, and Jerskin winning an Ivor Novello award , and Film Composer of the Year and Discovery of the Year awards at the 2024 World Soundtrack Awards. In-between time spent nurturing his burgeoning career as a composer (working on Lanthimos’ Poor Things, Kinds of Kindness & forthcoming Bugonia ), Jerskin began work on Once Upon A Time. . . In Shropshire . The record threads together memories of a vibrant, rural childhood, attempting to capture a time and place that’s been altered by the ebb of time and the failings of memory. “It's not a sad thing - maybe a bit nostalgic. It’s trying to capture that feeling and how important that was to me and my friends and my family - and then how, bit by bit, it gets cracked and corrupted” he adds.
