Poetry Reading 19th October 2011 at The Rose Theatre, Edge Hill University, Orsmkirk, Lancaster, 7.30: £4.

Tim Atkins is the author of Folklore 1-25 (Heart Hammer), To Repel Ghosts (Like Books), 25 Sonnets (The Figures), Oriental Tapping (Penguin), Horace (O Books), and Folklore (Salt). Another volume, Petrarch, is available from Barque Press. His work to ‘translate’ the whole of Petarch is one of the most exciting poetic projects of our time. He calls them ‘versions & perversions of the love poems of Petrarch’. He is editor of the online poetry journal onedit, Senior Lecturer in creative writing at the University of East London, a practising Buddhist, practising father, and is lousy at multi-tasking.
