Dead [Women] Poets Society at Sylvia Plath Literary Festival

Tickets are available via TicketSource here (£8/£5 concession).

Dead [Women] Poets Society is delighted to be coming to the Sylvia Plath Literary Festival! Plath is so many people's favourite dead woman poet, and one of the first poets we ever resurrected back in 2015, so we can't wait to head to the festival marking 90 years since her birth.

Claire and Natalie are both winners of the Women Poets Prize (which, by the way, is open for applications) among many accolades.
