After Dinner Event (1) : Poetry London Celebrates 100 issues (E2), Thursday 4th November 2021, 9 - 10pm

With Rachel Long, Vidyan Ravinthiran, Momtaza Mehri, Jemilea Wisdom-Baako and Janine Bradbury. This event is hosted by André Naffis-Sahely

Celebrate the 100th edition of Poetry London, with editor André Naffis-Sahely, and recently featured poets Rachel Long, Vidyan Ravinthiran and Momtaza Mehri alongside Poetry London mentees, Jemilea Wisdom-Baako and Janine Bradbury. From modest beginnings in 1988, when it was a listings newsletter, Poetry London has developed into one of the UK’s leading poetry magazines. Do not be misled by its name: Poetry London has the same relation to London as The New Yorker has to New York. In other words it is a national and international journal, and as such it spreads its net wide to include the latest work from around the world, much of it in translation.
