ALAN MORRISON: Poet, Publisher, Critic Come and hear Alan Morrison discuss his prolific literary career and read from his new collection, Rag Argonauts (Caparison, 2024). In these erudite and emotionally charged poems, disparate and desperate characters from ancient Greek orator Demosthenes and Swedish artist/mystic Hilma af Klint to T.S. Eliot and W.H. Auden navigate ragged waters with fabulous beings, including a Stochastic Parrot (AI large language model program) capable of sentient thought, and Harpies-persecuted Phineus of Greek mythology transposed as a benefit claimant preyed upon by the Department for Work and Pensions.
