WELLINGTON WRITERS ON MONDAYS
2 AUGUST Four x Two: New Poetry


The second novel is traditionally considered ‘difficult’ for writers, but what about the second volume of poems?  There’s an intriguing 25-year gap between John Newton’s first and second books of poetry, but Ingrid Horrocks, Anna Livesey and Hinemoana Baker (pictured) haven’t waited quite so
long to deliver their next instalment.  They read from their new books and discuss the challenges of the poet’s progress with Chris Price.

Writers on Mondays is presented by the International Institute of Modern Letters and The Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa.
These events take place at 12.15-1.15pm, at The Marae, Level 4, Te Papa.
They are open to the public and free of charg
e.
