Richard Burns is a truly international writer, having lived in Italy, Greece, the USA, the UK and Yugoslavia. He reads from his latest collection The Blue Butterfly (Salt), poems about revenge and forgiveness set in the Balkans. Lane Ashfeldt’s Music For Cold Weather fuses words, visuals and ambient sounds to tell the fantastical story of a DJ in Finland. Lane’s writing is featured in the Guardian, Tell Tales and elsewhere. Irish poet Aoife Mannix has lived in the UK, Ireland, Sweden and New York and brings her cross-cultural background to bear with magical poems from her latest collection The Elephant in the Corner.
