Thanks. Heard Alan Brownjohn do a reading back in the dark ages when I was at university. He was good which is more than can be said for me.

[Mamyalynne]

I hadn't come across him before, hence I got this from the wordplay and crossers.

[highbury57]

He read well and as I remember answered questions without any affection.

[NC4BBQ]

Affection? Affectation?

[highbury57]

Affection. He read well but it went less positively after that.

[Mamyalynne]

A lack of oomph?

Maybe his communication and passion lies in his poetry rather than actually discussing it?

[highbury57]

Yes indeed. He was alive and full of verve when reading but another person altogether afterwards.

[NC4BBQ]

I see.
