Power From Things Not Declared: Christopher Whyte and Michael Shaw for

Our October Hold Hands Among The Atoms video is a conversation between Christopher Whyte (poet, novelist and translator) and Michael Shaw (Lecturer in Scottish Literature, University of Stirling).
Reflecting on the interviews published as 'Power from things not declared' in 1990 (in Nothing Not Giving Messages), Christopher Whyte discusses his conversations with Morgan in 1988 and the influence Morgan had on his own work.
Subjects of queerness, poetry and Glasgow are all explored in this new video, which can be viewed on our website, along with a written introduction from Edwin Morgan Trust Chair and poet, David Kinloch.
This is the sixth video from our Hold Hands Among The Atoms series, celebrating the Edwin Morgan Centenary, 2020. #EdwinMorgan100.
