SUMMARY:Gaia Vince in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:EVENT POSTPONED: Please note that due to travel disruptions we are having to postpone this event. Details of the new date will be confirmed shortly and our box office will be in touch with customers to offer a ticket transfer or refund. \n‘Have no doubt\, we are facing a species emergency – but we can manage it. We can survive\, but to do so will require a planned and deliberate migration of a kind humanity has never before undertaken.’ In her latest book\, Nomad Century: How to Survive the Climate Upheaval\, Gaia Vince promotes the idea of planned and extensive migration as key to surviving the climate crisis. A brilliant speaker\, Gaia will discuss how the relocation of hundreds of millions of people will allow us to adapt habitats and create global economic security. \nGaia Vince is an award-winning science writer\, journalist and broadcaster. She writes for the Observer and Guardian and presents on BBC R4. She is the author of the groundbreaking work Adventures in The Anthropocene for which she spent 2.5 years travelling to over 50 countries to map the ways humans are changing the planet forever. Presented by Manchester Literature Festival in partnership with Manchester Museum and hosted by Museum Director Esme Ward. Sponsored by Sofas & Stuff. \nImage credit: Phil Fisk

SUMMARY:Simon Armitage
DESCRIPTION:‘Perhaps [song lyrics] have something that the poems don’t. Or perhaps they don’t have something that the poems do’. Where do song lyrics and poetry converge? Poet Laureate Simon Armitage has always been inspired as much by music as he is the written or spoken word. His latest book Never Good With Horses collects Simon’s musical outpourings\, from the lyrics written for his ambient post-rock band Land Yacht Regatta\, to the DIY indie band The Scaremongers to those written for film and theatre productions\, including the BAFTA-winning Feltham Sings\, for which Simon won an Ivor Novella Award. Join us to hear Simon read some of his favourites and discuss his love of language\, his creativity and compositions\, his collaborations with musicians\, and some of the songwriters and lyricists he admires. \nSimon is the author of numerous poetry collections including The Unaccompanied\, Seeing Stars and his acclaimed translation of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. He has won numerous awards including the Queen’s Gold Medal for Poetry. Presented by Manchester Literature Festival in partnership with Manchester Poetry Library. Supported by Sofas & Stuff.                                                                                                                             \nImage credit: Katie Silvester
