Increasingly recognised as a distinctive collection of poetic voices, Dark Angels have just published their third anthology. This one 'Family Matters' is on the most personal subject yet, relationships within families between parents and children and beyond. There are 18 poets in the new collection and up to five of them will be reading and sharing their thoughts on the value and purpose of human creativity in a world increasingly dominated by technology. Poets will include Rishi Dastidar and Galen O'Hanlon. Poetry was recently described on Desert Island Discs as the most potent expression of the human condition. We believe in the emotional power of poetry to reach out and connect with all human beings.
