Follow on Google News | Parthian Booklaunch: Landeg White and Jeni WilliamsThe Dylan Thomas Centre launches two new poetry collections on Wednesday, 7 October: Landeg White’s Singing Bass and Jeni Williams’ Being the Famous Ones.
By: City and County of Swansea In the 1960s, Landeg White was chief arranger and bass pan player for Trinidad's Camboulays Steel Band. Forty years on, that same music can be heard in this, his eighth collection of poetry. Versatile in form, sensuous in language, cosmopolitan in range, White renews poetry's oldest themes. His celebrations of love, language, anger and mortality are securely earthed in Portugal where he now lives. Being the Famous Ones is Swansea-based Jeni Williams’ first collection of poetry. Rooted in Wales but engaging with the wider world, the poems are deeply interested in people – in their stories, voices and conversations. Her collection deals with the difficult subjects of vulnerability, the abuse of power and in the complexities of loss.
