Reading

With Robin Robertson, poet and publisher, Scotland/UK

Moderation Alexander Gumz, poet and event organiser

Robin Robertson is one of Great Britain’s most well known poets. His poems are rooted in Greek and Celtic myths, and evoke, in powerful language, the landscape and culture of North-east Scotland. Robertson writes this tradition forth in a contemporary and individual way – poems about the uncanniness of nature, about transience, and about the ocean, its “complaining pull and roll”. Robertson will read older and new poems, some of which are included in the recent translation by Jan Wagner, published by Hanser. The poet Alexander Gumz will introduce him.
