Quay Sonnets by Peter Bennet

Iron Press Book Launch

Peter Bennet was one of the organisers of the Morden Tower readings in the nineteen-eighties and was an editor of Other Poetry. He has published nine books of poetry and many pamphlet collections, the majority of them since he was sixty. He lived for over thirty years in a remote cottage near the Wanney Crags, in the part of Northumberland associated with the ballad-writer James Armstrong, author of Wild Hills O’Wannys. He now lives next to the Tyne in North Shields.
