You are invited to celebrate the launch of two exceptional poetry collections! Featuring Wendy McGrath & Sarain Frank Soonias.

Hosted by NeWest’s own, the award-winning Jennifer Bowering Delisle and launching the brand new collections ALL WRONG HORSES ON FIRE THAT GO AWAY IN THE RAIN and The Beauty of Vultures along with recent releases Attic Rain and Dreams of the Epoch & the Rock. With four fabulous readers, this is a must-see NeWest poetry line up!
