VoicesontheBridge calling! On Wednesday 30th November @Storyvillebooks 8 Mill Street, Pontypridd… Three days to go!

Abeer Ameer

I’m looking forward to hearing Abeer Ameer (@abeer_ameer77) reading her poetry.

Abeer is a poet of Iraqi heritage who lives in Cardiff, Wales. She trained as a dentist in London developing an interest in the treatment of anxious patients and mindfulness. Her poems are often inspired by stories of Iraq and include a range of personal and political themes. They have appeared widely online and in-print publications including: Acumen, Poetry Wales, Magma, New Welsh Reader, The Rialto and The Poetry Review. Her debut poetry collection, Inhale/ Exile, was published by Seren in February 2021 and shortlisted for the Poetry Category for Wales Book of the Year 2022.

Writers also reading will be Sophie Buchaillard, Tomos Sion Owen, Susie Wild, Ben Wildsmith, Nicholaus McGaughey, Stephanie McNicholas & Rob Cullen.
