Memoir & Poetry: An Evening with Blake Morrison

Blake Morrison has come full circle.

He began writing poetry outside his journalism career before writing fiction, criticism (he was the first to publish a critical study of Seamus Heaney), libretti and plays and becoming Professor of Creative Writing at Goldsmiths, University of London.

Best known for his acclaimed autobiographical works And When Did You Last See Your Father? and Things My Mother Never Told Me, he returns to life writing in his new book On Memoir and new poetry collection, Afterburn.
