Information

Poet, performer and BBC Radio Scotland presenter of The Arts Mix, Len Pennie is one of the most exciting voices in contemporary Scots writing. Her new collection Poyums Annaw, is bold, defiant and deeply moving—tackling patriarchy, injustice and survival with razor-sharp wit, tenderness and unmistakable fire. With a huge online following and a gift for bringing poetry to new audiences, Len’s work is as powerful on the page as it is live. Expect an electric, thought-provoking event that is by turns funny, fierce and full of heart—poetry that speaks directly to now, and refuses to be ignored.
