Join us for an unforgettable evening where literature comes to life! Amazing actor Matthew Peter-Carter will bring some of the most powerful and thought-provoking poems to life, immersing us in the beauty of language and emotion. Through the selection of poems we will explore the dynamic between mind and heart, logic and inner voice and will discuss the following pieces:
From an Essay on Criticism – Alexander Pope
Late Wisdom – George Crabbe
The Book Burnings – Bertolt Brecht (translated by H.R.Hays)
Women – Alice Walker
No preparation is needed—just bring your curiosity and let the words transport you. We’ll not only listen to these masterpieces read aloud by a professional actor and literature scholar, but also take time to discuss and reflect on how their ideas and emotions are shaped by the power of language.
