Diary of a Bipolar Explorer

After retiring as Professor of English Language and Literature at Oxford University in 2016, Lucy Newlyn, a Patron of the Wordsworth Trust and expert on English Romantic poetry, felt able to write and publish an account of her life with bipolar disorder. Diary of a Bipolar Explorer describes how she coped with the condition and discovered that reading and writing poetry helped her to understand and manage it. We are pleased to welcome Lucy to Grasmere to talk about her experiences and lead some workshop activities to help us understand the positive impact of poetry reading and writing on our own mental health.
