WRITERS ON MONDAYS

Beach, Bach and Beyond: Three Poets Come and hear the latest in poetry, in a reading and discussion chaired by poet Cliff Fell.  David Beach's fourth collection, Jerusalem Sonnets, Love, Wellington Zoo, tackles, amongst other things, the inescapable presence of James K. Baxter for nay sonnet writer.  Morgan Bach's debut, Some of Us Eat the Seeds, welcomes a refreshing new voice that is in turns witty and sharp-edged. The international publication of Otherwise,  John Dennison's first collection, heralds a new, vivid and sensual voice in the New Zealand (and UK) poetry scene. DATE:  Monday 20 July TIME:   12.15-1.15pm VENUE:  Te Papa Marae, Level 4, Te Papa (please note that no food may be taken onto the Te Papa Marae) Writers on Mondays is presented with the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, National Poetry Day and Circa Theatre.
