Join the Manchester City of Literature team to mark the completion of Anjum Malik, Ali Al-Jamri, and Jova Bagioli Reyes’ tenure as the city’s first Multilingual City Poets, and celebrate the start of a new journey with two freshly appointed successors: Charlotte Shevchenko-Knight and Nóra Blascsók.

Alongside readings and film screenings from all poets, Charlotte and Nora will facilitate a conversation together with Anjum, Ali and Jova, exploring themes of multilingual writing, language, translation and poetry.
