Library users were treated to readings of The Ruin by Charles Spicer and four commissioned poems from Richard Westall:

Time Was
Orphans
Tongue Tied
and Bluecoats

Live music for the event was a suitable mix of ancient and modern with Mark T. and Charles Spicer introducing and concluding the event with four early medieval tunes on English bagpipes and cittern.

The readings were accompanied by a small soundbeam group composed of Ashlyn Honey, Tony and Greta Doak and Mark T. providing the music for both 'The Ruin' and 'Time Was'.



Richard's first anthology of poems; 'Soft Bombs' will be due out towards the end of October. Copies will be available from Circle of Sound for £4 including postage and packing.
