We are thrilled and excited to welcome Richard C. Bower to host the Literature Corner at our very first Dev Fest event on May 18th, Devonshire Green. He has a fabulous line up of speakers and performers, not to be missed! Look out for the line up to follow…😀 “Damo Suzuki’s favourite poet, Richard C. Bower is a celebrated writer and journalist. Accredited by UNESCO Nottingham City of Literature, he’s the official Mansfield Town Football Club poet, and a member of the prestigious Authors’ Club (as was Oscar Wilde et al). Originally from Mansfield, Richard was celebrated as part of the very first Nottinghamshire Day. His work has been translated into the national language of Bengal, whilst being critiqued in classrooms around the world; being compared alongside the esteemed work of Nobel Prize winner Rabindranath Tagore.” #literature #poetry #poets #authors #guestspeakers #performers #sheffield #sheffieldissuper #visitsheffield #livinginsheffield #books #culture #writers
