    Description


    Hammer & Tongue
    is a live poetry and spoken word night, from the organisers of the "best poetry gigs in Europe, hands-down"!

    The night includes a featured set from London peformance poetry legend Salena Godden!

    Salena Godden is one of Britain’s best loved poets and performers. She is also an activist, broadcaster, memoirist and essayist and is widely anthologised. She has published several volumes of poetry, the latest of which was Pessimism is for Lightweights, and a literary childhood memoir, Springfield Road.

    Mrs Death Misses Death is her debut novel. A BBC Radio 4 documentary following Godden's progress on the novel over twelve months was broadcast in 2018.

    "
    Poetry, prose, life and death. Salena Godden brings them together with ease. She is a wordsmith of the highest order." – Benjamin Zephaniah
