Poetry at the Palace

A hit at the 2005 festival, Glenn Colquhoun returns to charm us once again with his GP’s bedside manner and his poet’s sensibility.

Playing God, his third collection, won the Reader’s Choice Award at the Montana awards in 2003 - the only time a collection of poetry has won this award - as well as the poetry title and has so far sold 10,000 copies. His new poetry sequence North: South explores the links between Maori and Irish mythology and is being illustrated by Nigel Brown for publication.
