Local Suffolk poets Richard Whiting and Derek Adams have organised an event of particular interest for this marking of the end of WW1.

The current owners of the house (then named Belle Vue) Blunden once inhabited in Stansfield, Suffolk after the war in the 1920s, have made it available for a poetry reading on Sunday 11 November.

A new edition of Blunden's poetry is now available from Carcanet Press.

Later in 2018, as a final commemoration of Blunden's war, a new edition of his poems edited by Robyn Marsack will be published by Carcanet.

The Annual Lecture at the John Clare Society festival will be given by Margi Blunden, daughter of Edmund Blunden. Blunden did much to make Clare known and Margi's talk will explain how her father came to 'unearth' Clare in the early part of the 20th century.

We make no apology for quoting www.eastsussexww1.org today, the 100th anniversary of a lesser known battle of the First World War. One that was to haunt Edmund Blunden for the rest of his life.

John Greening, editor of the comprehensive new 'Undertones of War' edition will be discussing the book with Margi Blunden at the Ivor Gurney Society on 7 May 2016.

On Saturday 7 November the Suffolk town of Clare is holding an evening event to commemorate WW1. Lucy Edgeley, daughter of Edmund Blunden, will be there to read two of his poems.

Oxford University Press is offering 30 per cent off the new edition of Undertones of War if you order it through their website.

You can now follow the Edmund Blunden Society on Facebook.
