Eddie Paterson: kisshug
We are delighted to host the launch of Eddie Paterson's latest poetry collection, 'kisshug'.
Farmed, extracted and then uniquely coded, 'kisshug' continues Paterson’s poetic project. Operating in an opaque market in which assets are distorted, relationships confused and memorandums rule, these poems search for the beating heart in the post-truth emoji. Following on from the highly successful redactor, which was shortlisted in a number of national awards, this new collection is a companion volume brimming with wit, charm, playful workings with found texts and redactions sufficient to do any politician proud. Award-winning poet, novelist and critic, Lisa Gorton, will officially launch the collection.
Free, but bookings are essential.
