[Harrow Scottish @HarrowScottish]

We all loved it! Thrilling to hear Imtiaz Dharker read. The readings from ‘Shadow Dancer’, Imtiaz’ new book, were stunning in their intensity. You felt as if you could hold them in the palm of your hand and yet they would contain the whole Earth. @Idharker @csmithpoet

This event for International Women’s Day (8 March) with the poet Imtiaz Dharker is going to sell out fast. Get your tickets now — especially as there’s a deadline of 25 Feb (catering requires it; a curry dinner is included!) https://t.co/PXUYvtOYCO @BloodaxeBooks @Idharker

[Imtiaz Dharker @Idharker]

Thank you @jennywcreative, it was good to have you in the audience - and a real treat to hear Pádraig Ó Tuama @duanalla read 'Don't Miss Out! Book Right Now for the Journey of a Lifetime!'

[Jennifer Wong (she/her) @jennywcreative]

A very moving conversation at @VervePoetryFest between @duanalla & @Idharker. Drawing from #PoetryUnbound & #ShadowReader, their works show the universality of our feelings; how unsettling but also healing poetry can be.

[Bloodaxe Books @BloodaxeBooks]

Today @VervePoetryFest in Birmingham, 4.30pm, in person and online: poet & artist @Idharker in conversation with Poetry Unbound host @duanalla.
