STANZA - Scotland’s International Poetry Festival

What does wild mean to you? You can be assured to find it, and many other surprises, in St Andrews and online at this year’s festival. Environmental and landscape poetries. Unrestrained performances. Poetics which resist or re-wild existing forms. Poetries which challenge cultural and political norms. Wildly out-of-the-box, boundary-defying thinking and writing (because well might we need it…) Work which contests notions of ‘wildness’, ‘wilderness’ and ‘re-wilding’, and how these terms have been used (e.g. postcolonial writings which resist assumptions behind terms like ‘the wild west’). Involving poets and  artists from across Scotland, the UK and overseas, we’ll explore this and more in a wild, long weekend of poetry, which will once more be delivered in hybrid form.
