  • Robert Crawford: Air Miles

    Poetry readings from our 2009 poetry season are no longer available.

    Robert Crawford was born in Lanarkshire in 1959 and is now Professor of Modern Scottish Literature at the University of St Andrews. His last collection of Poetry, ‘Full Volume’ was published last year and continued his interest in technology and Scotland, both contemporary and its industrial past. This year he published a biography of Robert Burns, ‘The Bard’.
