Scots language poet Len Pennie will be touring the UK from 15th February to 1st March to celebrate the release of poyums, her debut collection.

Len will be taking part in events in Edinburgh, Glasgow, St Andrews, Abergavenny, London, and Bristol. For more information, including dates and how to book your tickets, see here.

Whether she’s writing letters to her younger self, advocating for women’s rights or adapting fairy tales to process an abusive relationship, Len’s voice is bold, unashamedly frank and unmistakably hers.

The poems in this collection, both funny and fiercely feminist, announce a formidable new talent. Moving deftly between English and Scots, poyums is as approachable as it is affecting.

poyums will be released on 22nd February 2024 and is available for pre-order now. You can order your copy here.
