My teacher kept me safe | Raymond Antrobus

When Raymond sent an entitled, immature and overly earnest MySpace message, he wasn't expecting the response to shape his whole career.

Poet and writer, Raymond Antrobus, can't tell you every story of what happened on the W3 bus, the 236 bus, the W7 bus, or the 144 bus… Better than that, he can tell you about the time he became a castle dweller, why a simple roast would change a day, and how watching a man divide up his chocolate for the room moved him so much.

Thanks so much for being here!

You can find Raymond's book, The Quiet Ear, in all good bookshops and online.
