Liverpool Poetry Space: Pig Date with Anne Vegter
What it is
We are delighted to welcome Anne Vegter and translator Astrid Alben to Liverpool, in partnership with UK publisher Prototype. This event is part of New Dutch Writing, supported by the Dutch Foundation for Literature.
Pig Data is a collection that exposes the raw nerves of power and desire, and is the winner of the Ida Gerhardt Poetry Prize.
Anne Vegter is the author of numerous poetry collections, children’s books, theatre monologues, and erotic stories. Her first poetry collection, Het veerde, appeared in 1991, followed in 1994 by Ongekuiste versies, a book of erotic tales. Since then, she has published widely across genres.
Her work is characterised by an elastic style that is playful, erotic, enigmatic, and disturbing.
