We often turn to poetry to illuminate the dark. Join award-winning poets and authors Lev Grossman (the Magicians trilogy), Lulu Houdini (ma-li), and Toby Schmitz (Empress Murders) as they discuss with Red Room Poetry’s Jonty Claypole (co-host of The Secret Life of Books) some of their favourite collections that let the light in, as well as live readings.
Book your place to be in the running to have one of your original poems read out on the night (by either yourself or one of the featured poets). For poem entries - please title your email "Poetry After Dark competition" and send to eventscoordinator@dymocks.com.au
Note: Refreshments are included in the ticket price.
