Magma Poetry 39 Launch Reading Tonight
Tonight is the launch reading for Magma Poetry issue 39, at The Troubadour near Earls Court.
If you love poetry, you’ll love it - and if you’ve never been to a contemporary poetry reading, it’s a great place to start. We have excellent headline poets in George Szirtes and Anna Woodford, and the reading will feature lots of other poets from the magazine - so with a wide range of readers there should be something to appeal to you. And The Troubadour is a great venue, invariably packed for Magma readings.
Magma is one of the best poetry magazines in the UK, always featuring major contemporary poets alongside new and up-and-coming writers. We take it in turns to edit the magazine (I edited Magma 34) - David Morphet has done a terrific job with this issue, which you can sample on the Magma website for free.
Let me know if you’re coming tonight, I’ll wear a red carnation or something so we can say hello.
