Penned in the Margins

 |
Contemporary poetry does not always receive the critical and popular engagement it deserves, indeed requires. The Battle of Ideas seeks to right this wrong; scoping new directions, stamping at the boundaries of literary culture and, as ever, refusing to avoid areas of controversy and difficulty. Penned in the Margins is proud to support The Battle of Ideas. |
"The audience were the stars of the Battle of Ideas - engaged, informed and enthusiastic. As a panellist, I felt both ashamed and educated. Exactly as it should be."
