6 Week Summer Poetry with Malcolm Hebron

Sumer is icumen in! So goes an early English poem, and so go we. In the merry months of June and July at Raw Writing, we’ll explore summer in its different moods, from medieval lyric to Philip Larkin, from the sun-drenched Caribbean to Australian landscapes and hot nights in Spain. Through reading and discussion, we’ll grow as readers and do some of our own writing, too. Come and join us for a summer holiday in poetry! Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day..?
