Edward Bell, writer, organiser and teacher, has written a spoken word Paris poem specifically for this feature at Spoken Word Paris: Paris is Parasite. Based in the City of Light for more than 12 years now, he has actively contributed to associative and literary life, been published in various places, and read deeply from the Book of Nature. Shortlisted twice for the Latin Poetry Prize in London, his poetry is as evocative as it is subtle, abundant as it is polished, witty as it is cheeky.
