Hyperfocus - Home (Anthony Joseph & Helen Mort - November 2026)
Duration: 4 weeks
Dates: 3–24 November 2026
Tutors: Anthony Joseph, Helen Mort
Workshops: Tuesdays, 7–9pm UK (online)
This four week course will explore how poetry responds to ideas of place, both exterior and interior landscapes. How can poems of 'home' move beyond the anecdotal or purely descriptive? Can a poem become a home in itself? Must the poet always take the conflicted position described by Seamus Heaney – 'lost, unhappy and at home'? These workshops will include prompts and readings designed to defamiliarise the familiar notions of home, whatever that may mean to the individual writer.
