Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 229: Poet Laureate

Today, it is just that the judges exchange recommendations with each other, and it is not the final result. Baidu searched for GeiLiwx.com, so, after the meeting, the judges went back to each other.

As President Randolph Orm strongly recommended "The Collection of All Beings", these people bought a copy and went back to see what happened after they went back.

But it was so casual, and within ten minutes, their faces were surprised.

"Oh my God, I can't believe this is a poem written by a young man in his twenties. It's so deep."

"I just watched the first poem, which is amazing. I didn't expect modern young people to write such perfect poems. Oh my God, I can't control it anymore. I have been deeply impressed by his poems. Fascinated. I want to keep watching."

"Today Randolph Orm said that this collection of poems written by Kevin is very good. I don't believe it alive and dead. Now I have to believe it. This is really a collection of poems that is close to perfect. Although I just watched the previous one. A few poems, but every capital is so outstanding, it’s simply amazing."

"Yes, it's not bad. I haven't read poems written by young people for many years. Kevin's "The Collection of All Beings" directly brought modern British poetry to a higher level."

After reading some of the poems in The Collection of All Living Beings, these people had to express a similar sigh as above. At this time, they finally understood why Randolph Aum would strongly recommend Kevin to be the Poet Laureate this time.

Two days later, it was the Poet Laureate's reconfirmation meeting. The result of this determination was very critical. Because the vote of any one of the judges has played a key role.

"Everyone, I said before. Although Kevin is young and not a royal noble, his poetic talent can really be called the work of modern British poets. I think he will make British poetry to another level. So. My answer today is Kevin." Randolph Aum said at the meeting.

This time no one is surprised by Randolph Orm's words, because anyone who has seen "The Collection of All Beings" knows that Kevin's talent is fully worthy of the title of modern poet laureate.

Therefore, many people are also on Randolph Aum's side at this time.

"I also agree with President Orm's opinion. Kevin is really good at writing poetry. I have been watching it for the past two days. Maybe he can make English poetry go to the world."

"I think Randolph Orm's idea is correct. Kevin's poetic talent is really different. I have never seen any poem in a collection of poems that can be excellent to close to perfect. So. I. Like Randolph Orm, he also supports Kevin."

"I changed my opinion the previous two days. This time I voted for Kevin like Randolph Orm. I think Kevin can get the title of Poet Laureate."

Of course, although the judges all acknowledged Kevin’s poetic talent, not all of them voted for Kevin. After all, the influence of other poets and their contributions to British poetry is also huge. And their poetry status and identity are incomparable to Kevin, so they naturally won some votes from the judges.

It's just that the final result of this selection is that Kevin won the title of Poet Laureate by one vote over York Rutland. This result was undoubtedly unexpected to many people, so the official website of the British Poetry Association did not immediately publish it. This is also one of their rules:

After the list of poet laureates is finalized, they usually choose to announce it 2 days later. The purpose is to allow the judges to have extra thinking time. Even if something goes wrong in the middle, they can adjust it in time.

In these two days, no judge can disclose the list of things. If anyone violates the rules, they will not be eligible to be a judge next time.

So at this time, apart from the judges participating in the final review knowing who the Poet Laureate is, no one else knows. Because of this, he thought that the poet laureate would be securely obtained by his father. At this time, he had already ordered a hotel for the celebration banquet in the local hotel.

Since his father temporarily lives in Edinburgh, he has also been in Edinburgh during this time. On this day, he just arranged everything in the hotel and came back. Then I ran into Kevin on the streets of Princes Street.

He had met Kevin the last time he was in London. So this time I recognized the other person at a glance.

"Oh, isn't this Mr. Kevin, the great writer! Oh. Mr. Kevin, good afternoon." J's words were obviously contemptuous.

"Hello, nice to meet you." Kevin said politely.

"Oh, sorry, I have to prepare for my father's poet laureate celebration, so bye bye."

This sentence of j was deliberately said to Kevin, the purpose is to tell the other party, this time the title of Poet Laureate his father must be captured.

But J won't know that Kevin didn't feel any discomfort because of this sentence. The face of this literary boy still had a confident expression on his face.

Nine o'clock two days later. It is time for the official Twitter of the British Poetry Association to announce the biggest development in the poetry world this year. Yes, it is decided by negotiation. Today's 9 o'clock is the day when the winner of the title of Poet Laureate will be announced on time.

"After the unanimous decision of the jury, the honorary winner of the Poet Laureate this time is Kevin~www.NovelMTL.com~ Congratulations to Kevin. He created a precedent in the history of our Poet Laureate. Because before this, we have not had a second Poets in their teens have won such a prestigious record." The official Twitter of the British Poetry Association wrote.

As soon as this tweet was posted, many people were immediately surprised. They couldn't believe their eyes. Many people ran to the bathroom, tried to clean their eyes with the water from the tap, and then ran back to the computer to see what happened.

But I'm sorry, no matter how many times they wash their eyes, the content of this tweet sent by the official Twitter of the British Poetry Association at 9 o'clock still remains unchanged-Kevin is the winner of the Poet Laureate this time. He created a miracle.

J is the most surprised and disbelieving person. He read the content of this tweet several times and called the relevant personnel to confirm. But the final result is still that his father did not get the honor of poet laureate.

As a result, at this time, J had to cancel things for the celebration banquet that had been booked for a while. (To be continued)

Happy reading every day
