Description
If you were going to name the world anew, how would you do it? The late Guyanese poet Martin Carter longed for freedom to write a “happier alphabet”. Come and create individual and collective alphabets of freedom with the award-winning poet, author of Polkadot Wounds. Explore alphabet sequence forms like the abecedarian. Enjoy working with the constraints and potential of different kinds of “alphabet”. No previous experience of writing poetry required.
