Experience an evening of readings and conversation by two of the most innovative Caribbean poets working today, Fred D'Aguiar and Shivanee Ramlochan, co-produced by Renaissance One and Bath Spa University.

Expect an exhilarating and sociable event in which both writers explore creativity with performance and art and literature as a mode of expression and bearing witness. Both authors are of this time in the way they write, and what they write about. D'Aguiar explores some of the untold stories of grief, civil unrest, illness and the anxieties caused by change but he also looks to how poetry and storytelling can help and heal us.

Ramlochan creates poems of worlds, both familiar and unfamiliar but always contemporary. She creates spaces for queer stories, feminist tales and fierce poetry and weaves them together in a way that reflects our contemporary lives and experiences.

This event is a partnership between Bath Spa University and Renaissance One.
