Unpacking the Six Pack: Writing Masculinity, Sport and Body Image
Debunk received ideas on masculinity and get your poems buff at this Poetry School workshop led by Lewis Buxton.
This is a course for anyone interested in getting to the heart – both literal and figurative – of bodily representation, gender identities and the wealth of sporting tropes in their poems. Attendees will look at how to build a body of work and explore the corpora of contemporary poets unpacking the six pack, including Danielle DeTiberus, Michael Symmons Roberts and Helen Mort.
