PJ Harvey will be reading from ‘Orlam’ and joining in conversation with the poet Greta Stoddart at the Bridport Literary Festival on 12 November.

The Bridport Literary Festival has been running since 2005, emerging alongside the Bridport Prize which was founded in 1973.

Greta Stoddart is best known for her poetry collections ‘At Home In The Dark’, ‘Salvation Jane’ and ‘Alive Alive O’, and her work has been included in several anthologies and recognised by awards and nominations. She teaches for the Poetry School, following a teaching career at Goldsmiths, the University of London and Bath Spa University. Her new poetry collection ‘Fool’ will be published by Bloodaxe in September.

Sladers Yard is a contemporary art gallery in Westbay, Bridport.
