Time Out: Best of London 2009

Eurydice

Eurydice by Sue Hubbard

This week Time Out named Sue Hubbard’s poem at Waterloo, written when she was the Poetry Society’s Public Art Poet, and published in Ghost Station as one of the best things to look out for in London.

The poem was commissioned by the Arts Council and the BFI from Sue Hubbard to make the experience of taking the underpass from Waterloo to the Imax Cinema a little less grim. It works brilliantly and is so appropriate to the subterranean setting. It takes up the whole length of the tunnel, and its both reason to linger and haunting enticement to return.

It’s well worth seeing the words in situ, but you can read the poem in full here: http://downlode.org/Extext/lostcity
