James Fenton at Poetry Now

As photographer for this year's Poetry Now (part of The Mountains to the Sea Festival in Dún Laoghaire), I was delighted to have a chance to meet a poet I greatly admire, James Fenton, the person who wrote such stunning (and memorable) poems as A German Requiem, Wind, Jerusalem and many more.

I even had a few moments to talk with him before he went onstage to deliver his keynote address, a very interesting lecture on The Complete Poems of Philip Larkin, edited by Archie Burnett.
