- **Event Description**: William Wootten’s new collection Landline takes us from Eden to the end of the world. Its poems circumnavigate the globe and journey to Venus and the Underworld, bringing arresting voices via intricate patterns of rhyme and metre. ‘A fine poet … and a richly musical one’. Declan Ryan, Poetry. William’s other collections are You Have a Visitor and Landline (both Worple Press). He is Senior Lecturer in English and Creative Writing at the University of Bristol.

Derek Healy's fourth and latest collection, Children in the Window, uses traditional and free verse forms to look at a wide range of themes, including family, loss and ageing; the making of a new home; the messages to be found in prehistory; and quantum physics. At its heart is an extended sonnet sequence dedicated to his wife.
