On Friday 26 March, I will be going back to my old college, Christ Church, to take part in a panel discussion at the Oxford Literary Festival. The topic is 'Poetry and War', with fellow panelists Elaine Feinstein, David Harsent and Jon Stallworthy. Francine Stock is chairing the event, which starts at 6pm. See
here for tickets and further details.
I hope you'll report on the peaks and valleys of the conference for us. I used to lecture on war and literature to American undergraduates and still maintain a lively interest. The students were bright enough, but their knowledge of American history ended at 1945. (Of other kinds, it would be better not to inquire.)
