BLF: A Guided Journey through The Infernal Garden

Birmingham Literature Festival: A Guided Journey through The Infernal Garden with Gregory Leadbetter

Gregory Leadbetter’s latest poetry collection, The Infernal Garden (Nine Arches Press), offers the reader poems in which our inner and outer worlds are revealed afresh – and our planet becomes a garden haunted both by the experience of loss and the environmental crisis, and the promise of enchantment and renewal.

Join us for a one-of-a-kind journey through that garden, accompanied by an illustrated audio-visual guide to some of its curiosities, allusions, and connections – from the song of a blackbird to seventeenth-century occult arts – exploring the imagination of the poet and the world of The Infernal Garden.

Running time approx. one hour
