Details of an upcoming poetry/music event supplied by Jonty Driver:




 On Saturday 8th July, from 3-4 p.m. in the church of St Mary in the Marsh (TN29 0BX), as part of the JAM (John Armitage Memorial) Festival in the Romney Marshes, I shall be reading some of my sequence of poems, The Journey Back , first published in the 1990s, about my return visit to South Africa after nearly thirty years of exile. A text of the poems will be available for those who, like me, prefer reading to listening.  In between some of the poems, Peter Fields will be playing on my violin (made by the Brothers Carcassi in Florence in 1751) Corelli’s variations known as La Folia. Admission to the recital is free, though there will be a collection for the Hantam Community Education Trust in the Karoo
