The Department of English is organising a poetry reading of selections from Daniel Massa’s collection Barefoot in the Saltpans, published by Allied Publications, on Thursday at 6.30pm at the Aula Magna of the University’s Valletta campus.

Ninette Micallef and Paul Xuereb will be reading Barefoot in the Saltpans, Saltpans, Delimara Bay and Midnight Swim.

Adrian Grima will carry out a critical commentary.

There will be a five-minute musical interlude, featuring The Invitation and The Tribute from Seher [Enchantment] Song Cycle, composed by Joseph Vella for a text written for it by Daniel Massa, and sung by Maria Frendo.

Ninette Micallef and Paul Xuereb will then read Design for a New Arras, Conch, Wild and Gentle and Statements in Black. Ivan Callus will also be carrying out a critical commentary, after which the poet will read Ship of Dreams.

Refreshments will then be served.
