The latest lunchtime poetry event at Aberdeen Music Hall, organised by Prof Alan Spence, features Don Paterson
Don is one of the finest poets of his generation (and that’s quite a generation!) He has won all the major poetry prizes - The Whitbread Prize, the Forward Prize, The Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize - and he’s the only poet to have won the prestigious TS Eliot Prize twice. In addition, he has published books of aphorisms and written radio drama, and he’s Poetry Editor at Picador. He is also an accomplished jazz guitarist. His poetry is lyrical and profound, witty, sensual and spiritual, and he’s a captivating reader of his own work. His most recent poetry collection is the award-winning Rain.
