I was going to resume normal Tuesday Poem service this week, but instead, here is some YouTube video from the Men Briefly Explained / Tongues of Ash book tour, plus a radio interview I did for Radio New Zealand’s “Arts on Sunday” programme.
If you think “I would love to buy one of the shiny books featured in this video”, here is how to do so:
Video Poems from the Book Tour
These video highlights from our Wellington event at the Wellington Central Library and our Eastbourne event at the Rona Gallery and Bookshop include (a) Keith Westwater reading (actually, this is the whole vid) …
- The West Winds Gang is back
- Camera Obscura revealed: 1. The layered memories of a place
- Papaitonga Reserve in the duck-shooting season
- Evensong in a graveyard of villas
- Winds and time
… and (b) Tim Jones reading:
- Impertinent to Sailors
- Belong
- Queens of Silk, Kings of Velour
- Baxter-Curnow Band Live at Hyde Park 1969
- Epiphenomenon
- … and then, rather mysteriously, I read “Impertinent to Sailors” again
Radio New Zealand interview
Sonia Sly of Radio New Zealand interviewed me for the “Arts on Sunday” programme on Radio New Zealand. Here is the interview in mp3 format:

Next week, I promise, I’ll have an actual Tuesday Poem up on my blog! In the meantime, you can check out this week’s Tuesday Poems here: http://tuesdaypoem.blogspot.com
Thoroughly enjoyed this interview, Tim.Thanks for sharing the link.
