Field Ramble with Will Burns and Kevin Boniface

Send us Fan MailOn this  episode we meet Will Burns to hear about his latest poetry collection Natural Burial Ground. Many of you will know Will from his fantastic (lockdown set) novel The Paper Lantern, a portrait of a transforming social & physical landscape during the strangest of years. It is a book flooded with new found time unlike Natural Burial Ground. Instead there, Will’s voice is open to the complexities and trials of loss. Both books though urge the reader to look again at the wider world and the moment they find themselves in and are huge recommends.We also hear from Kevin Boniface who reads from his brilliant collection of short stories, Sports and Social. Set in a small Yorkshire town they are written with the eye of someone who sits at the heart of their community, mapping it’s intricacies, in beautifully observed, deeply humane writing.Sports and Social is published by Blue Moose Books. Natural Burial Ground is published by Corsair Press and The Paper Lantern is published by W&N. All books are available either at the authors or publishers websites as well as all good independent bookshops, so do check them out.Will Burns - www.willburns.co.uk Kevin Boniface - www.bluemoosebooks.comHuge thanks as ever go to Huw Marc Bennett for the use of his song Y Gwydd and to Ian Hawgood for the use  of I'm Not Sure We Belong@fieldzine www.fieldzine.comwww.patreon.com/fieldzine
