Faber New Poets
A Durham Book Festival event, in association with the Centre for Poetry and Poetics
Join us for this lively event which celebrates and showcases the talents of the best in the next generation of poets: Faber New Poets 2013-14. To celebrate the publication of their poetry pamphlets in October 2014, this event brings together readings from the recipients of the Faber New Poets 2013-14 scheme: Rachael Allen, Will Burns, Zaffar Kunial and Declan Ryan.
Backed by an innovative publishing programme and funded by Arts Council England, Faber New Poets aims to identify and support emerging talents at an early stage in their careers and has previously supported poets such as Sam Riviere, Toby Martinez de las Rivas, Fiona Benson, Heather Phillipson and Jack Underwood.
Introduced by Professor Stephen Regan
