  Peter Wyton

 
 

Peter Wyton takes you into uncharted poetry territory. Turn up prepared to have your thoughts provoked and your ribs tickled as he takes a look at the world through an oddly angled lens that allows him to see things often missed by others. A widely published and prize-winning poet, he has appeared at venues as diverse as Cheltenham Literature Festival, Glastonbury Festival, Oxford TV, Lewes Prison, schools and Arts Centres and Theatres nation-wide. He is currently Gloucestershire 1000 poet laureate. His poetry has also been heard on Radio 2 and Radio 4 and has appeared in the national press and the small poetry press. He was twice nominated for the Forward prize and appeared in the 1997 anthology. His 8th collection, Not All Men Are From Mars, being sold to raise funds for Women's aid, has endorsements from Jo Brand and others.

'We don't normally publish poetry but this is so good we will break our own rules.' - Sandra Barwick, Daily Telegraph

'The guy from Oxford who did the life of the planet - want to hear more, much more of him - and that poem - stunning. He is a genius and that was our favourite poem of the evening.' - George Monbiot, Guardian columnist

'..stimulating, sensual, pacey, eclectic, surreal..' - Cheltenham Art Gallery and Museum

'..star of the performance poetry world. Ready with irony, riddled with wordplay acute with enquiry..' - Ledbury Poetry Festival instigator
