Lemn Sissay will give a reading and talk on the story behind how he created Gold from the Stone in this Sunday headline event with one of Britain’s most popular and celebrated poets.
Lemn Sissay is renowned for his strong, lyrical work on social and family themes. He was seventeen when he wrote his first poetry book, which he hand-sold to the miners and millworkers of Wigan. Since then, his poems have become landmarks, sculpted in granite and built from concrete, recorded on era-defining albums and declaimed in over thirty countries.
NEED TO KNOW:
Lemn Sissay is at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre on 30 Jan, 2.30pm as part of the #ForTheCultureLyric Festival
