IP, who have published my recent poetry collection Men Briefly Explained and the two poetry anthologies I’ve co-edited, Voyagers: Science Fiction Poetry from New Zealand (with Mark Pirie) and The Stars Like Sand: Australian Speculative Poetry (with P. S. Cottier), are touring Jeremy Robert’s new poetry collection Cards on the Table around New Zealand.
There are three stops on the tour, and I’ll be reading at the Wellington stop – next Wednesday, 6pm, at Wellington Central Library.
In Christchurch, Dr David Reiter of IP and Jeremy Roberts will be joined by Sugu Pillay and Karen Zelas, while in Auckland, the reading will take place at Poetry Live.
In Wellington, David and Jeremy will be joined by Wellington poets published by IP: Mark Pirie, Keith Westwater and myself.
