As a follow-up to events at the Aldeburgh Poetry Festival, poets Soleïman Adel Guémar, Luljeta Lleshanaku & Amjad Nasser were joined by their publishers for an evening of readings at the Southbank Centre. The poets' publishers, Angela Jarman of Arc Publications, Neil Astley of Bloodaxe Books and Margaret Obank of Banipal Books gave readings from their own poets' works, all of which were met with enthusiasm from an appreciative audience. All-in-all, a great success and an inspiring evening for all in attendance
