Poetry After Kafka
“The world now is increasingly and ever more threateningly Kafkaesque” writes David Constantine. Kafka is “a sort of given, the premise on which knowingly or unknowingly many writers nowadays work”.
Come and hear three contemporary poets – Francesca Beard, Gale Burns, and David Constantine – present their own work, read an excerpt from Kafka and discuss his influence on writing and poetry. With an introduction and the participation of Professor Carolin Duttlinger.
The meeting will be chaired by Dr Ian Ellison.
