Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 219 Is it just a clown?

When Collison heard that Kevin had such a mentality, he was relieved a lot. www.geiliwx.com

"Dear Kevin, I'm much more at ease if you think so. Young people should have this kind of mentality."

After Collison continued to chat with Kevin for more than ten minutes, he also hung up the phone. At this time, he also told Principal Harden that Kevin was about to run for the title of poet laureate.

When Principal Harden heard that Kevin was recommended by David Lee to participate in the poet laureate campaign, the expression on his face was also joyful.

"That's great, Collison. If Kevin can really win the title of poet laureate, it will be a kind of pride for our University of Edinburgh. You must know that Kevin is a student of our University of Edinburgh who has gone abroad." Ha Principal Deng said excitedly.

"Yes, Dear Principal Harden, so I shared this with you as soon as I heard it," Collison said.

"Well! You should pay attention to the rules of the poet laureate election. We will try our best to help Kevin so that he can get more support." Principal Harden ordered.

"Of course! I will definitely do it."

Kevin is a student of Collison, so no matter what, he will naturally support Kevin.

The discussion about Kevin's qualifications was not limited to Kevin's Twitter. After the association's official website announced the list of poets who were elected as the poet laureate, the two voices became more lively.

Yes, a few days later, the British Poetry Association posted the list of poets recommended by its members to the official website. The main purpose of this move is to allow readers to choose and vote. It is similar to the election campaign for the gold medal writer of Time Magazine.

In fact, this is also the election method that the British are used to. They like to leave all the results to the public to make decisions and vote. They believe in God, and they believe that the public's vision is discerning, and God's vision is discerning.

There are a total of 10 poets selected for the title of Poet Laureate this time. Except for Kevin, the other 9 poets are all over 40 years old. And 7 of these 9 people are nobles.

That is to say, among the poets participating in the campaign for the title of British Poet Laureate, only Kevin is under 40 years old, and only two are not nobles. These two people, one is Kevin and the other is Barbosse.

Although Barbosse is not a British royal family.

But he is well known in English poetry circles. When he first debuted, Barbosse set a poetry sales record, which was the number one sales volume for five consecutive years. This also made Barbosse a hot literary star in the British literary world at that time.

Not only that, Barbosse also made outstanding contributions to the British poetry circles, and he participated in the compilation of British poetry theory and history. And went to the West and Eastern countries many times to teach the culture of British poetry.

Because of this, even if Barbosse was not a royal nobleman, he didn't have any complaints about being recommended to run for the title of British Poet Laureate this time.

But what about Kevin? Kevin is only in his early twenties, not long after graduating from university, and has only written a few poems and a collection of poems, and these are all done this year.

Brian's assistant had already planned to attack all of Kevin's remarks, and he instigated it again, intending to make Kevin completely unable to hold his head up in this matter.

So, after the official website of the British Poetry Association announced the list of the ten candidates for the poet. He also immediately asked someone to write an article and published it on the free website.

The title of this article is "A Clown in the Thames", which uses a clown in the Thames as a metaphor for the competition between Kevin and the other nine poets.

The article reads: There are always some people in this world who like to do things beyond their means, and even regard this ignorant behavior as a kind of madness, and believe that this kind of madness can change the world.

Since David Lee recommended Kevin to participate in the campaign for the title of British Poet Laureate, I think this is a wrong thing. This mistake also made Kevin, a so-called genius writer, forget his identity.

Yes, David Lee already admired Kevin very much, and we don't need to say more about this. But after Kevin qualified for the election, his words on Twitter made people very disappointed. He said he wanted the title of poet laureate?

But look, among the ten poets this time, which one is he comparable to? Who is not above him in contribution and influence in English poetry? OK. Even if we don't have what we said before, let's not forget that most of them are royal nobles, but what about Kevin?

hehe! Speaking of which. I guess God couldn't help laughing, Kevin's just a guy in his early 20s, just a student who's just out of college, just a guy who just started writing poetry this year.

He was recommended to participate in the Poet Laureate campaign together with nine other great poets, which makes people feel like a clown on the Thames River ----- can't make waves.

The Thames River is the famous "mother" river in England, and its English name is Rver Thaes. Originating in the Cotswold Hills in southwest England, it has a total length of 346 kilometers and traverses London, the capital of the United Kingdom, and more than 10 cities along the river. The 29-kilometer estuary flows into the North Sea.

The Thames River is also one of the longest rivers in the UK. The article compares Kevin to a clown in it, which means that Kevin is at a disadvantage among the ten poet candidates.

After this article was published, it attracted dissatisfaction from many of Kevin's readers, and even David Lee was very angry.

"Dear David Lee, I said it before you recommended Kevin. It is estimated that Kevin's age is difficult to get support, and you have wasted a good opportunity to recommend." People from the British Poetry Association said to David . Lee said.

"Yeah, now you understand our persuasion at the beginning. Kevin is still a little younger. It is still difficult to win the title of poet laureate. It is still the same sentence, I hope, God will continue to bless This young teenager makes his numbers less dismal."

"I just said that Kevin will never have a chance. Now look at it, someone will say that you are biased. Maybe you gave this recommendation opportunity to other people in the world, and everything will not be like this."

As soon as this article came out, people from the British Poetry Association began to talk triumphantly in David Lee's ear. (To be continued.) WWW.GEILIWX.COM happy reading every day
