FOLKESTONE POET MAKES BOOK CHART
Home
Folkestone poet Ben Barton has made the Amazon UK's Top 5 'Hot Books' chart with his debut poetry collection...
Called THE RED BOOK, it is described as his ‘greatest hits collection’ featuring over forty previously published poems, from The Re-Birth Remembered, a poem which won the Folkestone Ottakar’s Bookshop Poetry Competition in 1998, to more recent work based on Derek Jarman’s garden at Dungeness. Others include the widely-published The Dark Cloud of Dover and poems written from his apartment in the Metropole.

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
