Join us for an evening of poetry to mark the launch of Ellen Renton’s new pamphlet. You and Yours: Swinging across timelines and from the mundane to the surreal, You and Yours is a study in grief: how it exists beyond seismic losses in the stories we inherit, in shifting friendships, and in uncertain landscapes. These poems celebrate the self as a malleable entity under the influence of all the lives it encounters, and balance the pain that characterises the loss of a profound connection with the wonder of having it in the first place. About Ellen Renton: Ellen Renton is a writer from Edinburgh. Her work has been published in journals including Poetry London, Gutter, and Magma, and she released her debut pamphlet An Eye For An Eye For An Eye with Stewed Rhubarb Press.

She has released an EP and the album My Noise is Nothing with electronic musician Lord of the Isles. She holds an MA in Creative Writing: Poetry from the University of East Anglia.

Not the same tradition as the lineage above — a genuinely different thread to pull, if you want one.
