Poetry on the Lake Festival, 7-9 Oct, 2016

View of Isola San Giulio on the lake from Orta SG

Returned for another wonderful long weekend, despite rain but one day of sun at the Poetry on the Lake Festival
by Lake Orta (north of Milan).  This time I was delighted to give a reading upstairs in the Pallazotto
(see below).
Good to see old friends who come year after year and to hear the winning poets, Sharon Black,
Pat Borthwick, Rachel Plummer, Chris Considine, Katherine Pierpoint  amongst them at the awards ceremony
 in Omegna. Carol Ann Duffy, Imtiaz Dharker and Gillian Clarke also read.
