Peter Lord discusses his new book from Parthian, which describes, through fifteen picutres, the evolution of his own sense of self; from post-War childhood, art college in the 1960s, through the tension between incomers and local people in Wales in the 1970s and 80s, and finally through his exploration of the place they have had in the lives of the artists who created them.
To celebrate the life and works of one of the world’s finest twentieth century writers, organisations and individuals across Wales and beyond are planning a series of events, new books and major projects.
