- **Event Description**: Can poetry re-enchant everyday life, and help the reader reach into the deeper mysteries? A reading and a conversation exploring the power of poetry to reveal and illuminate with two poets and a prize-winning podcaster.

Gregory Leadbetter’s beautiful and questing new collection, The Infernal Garden ( Nine Arches Press), has been described as 'a masterclass in harmony and pitch’ by Jim Crace and 'heavy-metal poetry, dark and decidedly theatrical' by Jeremy Wikeley, The Telegraph.  

Gregory reads from his new book and discusses poetry’s ability to serve as a portal into other worlds and even, perhaps, to portend the future.  

Lorna Rose Gill's new collection is possessed by the ghosts and muses of her lineage - The Women I Come From speaks through and for Gill's ancestors who did not have a voice and whose lives were built around necessity. 

Lorna and Gregory share their poems and talk to Jo Durrant about poetry's unique powers.
