Booking: 020 7478 0100 / www.sohotheatre.com
Info: www.applesandsnakes.org
APPLES & SNAKES IN SOHO
Featuring Iain Sinclair
Iain Sinclair, the poet laureate of London’s peripheries, takes a break from pacing the streets and ventures into W1. With a brace of big-selling books behind him – including London Orbital and Hackney, That Rose-Red Empire – he is the arch-sniffer-out of the sense of place. Although ‘banned’ by certain borough councils for suggesting that the capital is worth more than whatever fast buck is being wrung out of it this week, he continues to strike a chord with those Londoners who prefer to look beyond the obvious. He will read a selection of his poetry and prose.
Also on the bill is Tim Wells, who has been described as ‘a bit like Henry Mayhew interviewing Eek-A-Mouse in an East End tailor’s’. Originally one of the ranting poets – and not allowed to forget it – Tim Wells is another writer with the essence of London underneath his fingernails. His latest collection Rougher Yet is currently available from Donut Press.
Jay Bernard, meanwhile, has been resident writer on a pair of allotment sites in London and Oxford as part of My Place Or Yours, an ongoing programme of poetic placements across the UK. As such, she’s been delving into the nature of urban green space and literally getting to know her onions. Join her as she presents a barrowload of words and film-clips documenting her experiences so far.
All told, it’s the ultimate guided tour for lateral thinkers. With poetry. And seats.

GALWAY: The North Beach Poetry Nights' June 2009 Slam
Monday, June 22nd, 2009, 9pm, 5/3 Euros
The Crane Bar,
Sea Road,
Galway
The North Beach Poetry Nights' June 2009 Slam, with guest poet Pete Mullineaux
Galway poet Pete Mullineaux has played from Cuirt to Glastonbury, Greenham Common to Trafalgar Square, alongside such luminaries as Salman Rushdie, Melvin Bragg and the Pogues. His first poem Harvest Festival was published in Macmillan's anthology Poetry and Song, when he was aged 13. Pete grew up in Bristol but in the late 70's, early 80's deserted to London to join the punk rock band The Resisters. Music, drama and poetry have been the driving forces of Pete's life ever since. He even managed to fit in a first class honours in drama from Middlesex University along the way!
His collection A Father's Day (Salmon Poetry, 2008) has been described by various reviewers as 'tender and lyrical', 'gorgeously resonant' and 'grimly funny' and drawn comparisons with Brian Patten and John Cooper-Clarke.
Guest MC is Miceal Kearney. Poets wishing to take part in the two-round slam please bring along two three-minute poems, preferrably memorized. The winner of each month's Slam goes forward to the 2009 North Beach Poetry Nights' Grand Slam in December 2009. The prize for the Grand Slam winner is publication of a collection of her/his work.

18-22 Ashwin Street,
Dalston,
London
E8 3DL
“poetry and music with the post-avant crowd for your Sunday afternoon pleasure”
Jeff Hilson, Ian McLachlan and Johan de Wit
Expect rigorous, radical and really quite astonishing performances at this event, with a set from two of Britain’s most uncompromisingly experimental poets performing with a well-established multi-instrumentalist improvising musician, himself with a strong connection with poetry.
Jeff Hilson is a contemporary British poet of great wit and inventiveness, who plays a major role in contemporary innovative writing, and whose readings are fast, infused with the comedy of language, and breathtaking in their creative approach.
Ian McLachlan is an improvising musician with a strong interest in poetry, who has done several performances with Johan de Wit and other poets (including Chris Torrance).
Johan de Wit is a Dutch-born writer of contemporary British poetry, whose work is singled out by its project of creating an absolute poetry of unalloyed language, acting as a rigorous detoxifier to the language centres of the brain – a truly avant-garde figure, a genuine explorer of language continents others don’t even know about.
