The Afroshine Rising Star and Czeslaw Milosz

Spent the day at Southbank Centre in the Sun working on an adaptation of Benjamin Zephaniah’s book Refugee Boy.    At five I cycle over to the British Library and read out the poems of Czeslaw Milosz to the public and with   the public in the Piazza.  To read  a great poet  under a great blue sky in the heart of London is a pleasure.    Actor  and poet Yusra Warsama (above)  dropped  by en route to Lithuania.  Afterwards  we got a coffee in Angel and talked.  Evening falls. The Emperor’s Watchmaker has taste.  Yusra is a rising star whom I  guarantee you will hear more about through your television screen.
