FRIDAY 17 SEPTEMBER
Jen Hadfield & Christine de Luca Two of Shetland’s best-known and best-loved poets will be in conversation with Jim Mainland at this event, introducing their new collections. Christine de Luca’s Veeve features a rich mix of poems in English and Shetlandic; Jen Hadfield’s The Stone Age focuses on landscape and language, and the diverse ways in which we see and experience the world.
The Stone Age Jen Hadfield’s new collection is an astonished beholding of the wild landscape of her Shetland home, a tale of hard-won speech, and the balm of the silence it rides upon.
