Clive James on Kieron Winn's work:

‘The level of craft in these poems is a delight. Meticulous balancing means that a seemingly straightforward line rides on a wave of its own music, and the stanza jump (it needs a name: the hitch-kick?) has redoubled force when a line is succeeded only after a deep pause for breath. Larkin, of course, was a master of that manoeuvre, but Winn’s version of it is all his, and particularly seductive in its timing, like a pause and glide in a well-danced tango.’

Kieron Winn will be reading with Back Room Poets members Rip Bulkeley, David Olsen, Sarah Watkinson and Pat Winslow
