CHELTENHAM: Grey Hen Press reading

Friday, 20th April, 2012, 2pm-3pm
The Frog and Fiddle,
313-315 High Street,
Cheltenham

Cheltenham Poetry Festival

With Alison Brackenbury, Ann Drysdale, Angela France, Joy Howard, Pat Simmons and Christine Webb.

Required reading for all ages but especially for the young-and-grumpy-in-heart. ‘This world’, say these poets, ‘is not a better place. Deal with it’, they say.  Then they show us how.  Penelope Shuttle (re Get Me Out of Here!)

Seriously good poetry…the fruit of long-life experience – brave writing, full of love and subversive wit and lyricism. R V Bailey (re Cracking On)

‘Nothing mimsy about these poems by older women. Fierce, funny, disturbing and fairly vicious. Lovely’. Michele Hanson (re A Twist of Malice)
