Of mutability

Jo Shapcott, of course. That's the book we're aiming to discuss at the next workshop. I've not read it yet. I know, I know. My shelves are full of books I'll get around to one day.
The next workshop is July 6th. Same arrangement as before: Bank Street Arts Centre, start at 12.00, go on till about 3.00, later if people want to. In the first couple of hours we workshop the poems people have brought (bring up to 10 copies - we'll break into smaller groups if more than ten people turn up). Then we have a book club type discussion of Shapcott's "Of Mutability".
If you need a copy, Blackwells Hallam Uni branch are well stocked.
The last workshop was pretty good. Ten poets turned up. We didn't quite have time to work on everyone's poems, because everyone was so keen to discuss Brian Turner's "Phantom Noise". (There's a mini-review we've written here: feel free to add your own comments).
