Waar gaat het over?
'Will Burns is a soulful English poet of the kind we don't make enough of' MAX PORTER 'Hugely affecting and timely' LUKE TURNER 'A boldly struck chord, one that contains many of the dissonances, but also the harmonies, found in England today' CHRIS POWER In THE PAPER LANTERN, a single speaker charts and interrogates the shifts in mood and understanding that have defined a surreal, transformative period in both his own history and that of the surrounding area.
