WRITERS ON MONDAYS - I Come from Palmerston North: James Brown


WRITERS ON MONDAYS
I Come from Palmerston North: James Brown
This month sees the release of James Brown’s fifth poetry collection, Warm Auditorium. We thought it was time to find out more about the man behind the poems, and tease out the shifts and changes in the work itself. Chair Fergus Barrowman drags the poet away from his desk at Te Papa to consider how work, world and words have cohabited and evolved between the covers of his books, and to give the new poems a hearing.
DATE:  Monday 30 July
TIME: 12.15-1.15pm
VENUE: The Marae, Level 4, Te Papa
(please note that no food may be taken on to The Marae)
Writers on Mondays is presented with the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, and additional support from Circa Theatre, City Gallery Wellington and the New Zealand Centre for Literary Translation at Victoria University.
