W H Auden event at the British Library

Wednesday 21 February marks the hundredth anniversary of the birth of Wystan Hugh Auden, one of the most significant and prolific poets and writers of the twentieth century. The British Library and the Stephen Spender Memorial Trust celebrate Auden's centenary with an evening of poetry readings that reflect the enormous breadth and wonderful technical variety of Auden's published output, including both the poems of the 1930's that chart ‘a low dishonest decade', and his later work published while resident in the United States.
Sponsored by the Eccles Centre for American Studies.
Event time: 19.00-20.15
Location: Shaw Theatre, 100 Euston Road, London NW1 2AJ. Next door to the British Library
