The Poetry Society

Working in collaboration with Royal Collection Trust, The Poetry Society commissioned Forward Prize winning poet Kei Miller to create a new poem. Place Name – Oracabessa, skilfully unites the themes of Gold and Journeys and follows the form of Miller's award winning collection 'The Cartographer tries to map his way to Zion'. The poem was premiered at an evening event in The Queen's Gallery on Thursday, 12 February 2015 to a full audience.
