Dunedin Poetry Event


Poets Harvey Molloy and Tim Jones are both going to be in Dunedin from 7-9 October for an environmental hui, and are taking the opportunity to hold a joint poetry reading as well. They'd love you to come along if you can - and there's an open mike, so please bring a poem to share if you wish.

Here are the details:

When: Sunday 9 October from 12 noon-1.30pm

Where: Dunedin Public Library, 230 Moray Place (Dunningham Room, 4th floor)

Details:

A former Dunedinite, Tim Jones maps both land and sea in his new collection, exploring our increasing intimacy with the sea due to climate change. And Wellingtonian Harvey Molloy's collection moves from the Lancashire moors of the poet's childhood to the eco-politics of New Zealand.

Come along to hear these two stimulating poets while they're in Dunedin for an environmental hui, and bring a poem of your own to read.
The University Bookshop has very kindly agreed to handle book sales at the event.

If you can't make it, please share this event with your Dunedin friends.
