Two Events Coming Up

One

Friday 23rd July, 7.30pm

Lisa Jarnot was unable to make the Greenwich Poetry Festival due to flu, so a very welcome and very in-haste reading has been set up.

Lisa is widely acknowledged to be one of the most important poets to come immediately after the Language landslide, along with Stacy Doris, Eleni Sikelianos, Juliana Spahr, Jennifer Moxley, Lisa Robertson, and Deanna Ferguson, and she is a fabulous performer / reader.  It will certainly be an evening to remember.
