Salt Margins presents an evening of cross-cultural, cross-current poetics in the relaxed, hip environment of the East End's Whitechapel Gallery.

RICHARD BURNS is a truly international writer, having lived in Italy, Greece, the USA, the UK and Yugoslavia. He reads from his latest collection The Blue Butterfly (Salt), poems of revenge and forgiveness set in the Balkans.

LANE ASHFELDT performs Music For Cold Weather, fusing words, visuals and ambient sounds to tell the fantastical story of a DJ from Finland. Lane's writing is featured in The Guardian, Tell Tales and elsewhere.

Irish poet AOIFE MANNIX has lived in the UK, Ireland, Sweden and New York and brings her cross-cultural background to bear with magical poems from her latest collection The Elephant in the Corner.

Joining Aoife is HEATHER TAYLOR, Canadian poet and playwright. Heather is author of Horizon & Back, and one of London's most talented multidiscipline writers.

Produced by penned in the margins in association with Salt Publishing
