Book Launch: Eurydice Speaks

Readings St Kilda, Boonwurrung Country, 112 Acland St, St Kilda 3182

Join us to celebrate the launch of Claire Gaskin’s Eurydice Speaks.

Eurydice Speaks is a linked sonnet series echoing the voices that emerge from the Underworld. A contemporary Eurydice uses the power of language to process her constraints and losses, reflected in strategies of transformation that focus on the dynamic between iteration and change. Fragments of being and transitory insights, like broken pieces of mirror within the architecture of the sonnet, reflect and distort, to deepen, intensify and reinforce connectivity. This collection illustrates the evocative, associative and allusive power in the methods of poetry, to know and be known, to feel and be felt, to gather and cohere.

This event is free to attend but bookings are essential as places are strictly limited.
