About

Inspired by their coming together at BBC Contains Strong Language festival in Bradford in September 2025, four of the poet cohort return to last year’s City of Culture with new material. Join Emily Zobel Marshall, Kim Moore, Antony Dunn and Daljit Nagra for a reunion event combining readings and performances with candid discussion and audience questions. 

Zobel Marshall’s latest poetry collection is Other Wild (Peepal Tree Press, 2025), Moore’s The House of Broken Things was published in April this year (Corsair), Dunn is launching his new book Inbetween Days in October (Valley Press), and Nagra’s Yiewsley (Faber) was released in May.
