Plotting for the Future: Survival Renewal and Optimism
Bottleworks Bookshop, 8 Riverside Walk, Byker, Newcastle, NE6 1LX
24th May 2022 19:00-21:00
Free
Join local authors, short fiction writer Lily Peters, and poet Rob Walton, as they read from their recent Arachne Press Publications, Accidental Flowers and This Poem Here. They will talk about how their very different writing (Science Fiction and poetry) connect in their themes of navigating the personal and political through an imagined, but horribly likely, ecological disaster and an all too real pandemic, to make room for optimism for the future… and an accidental connection through allotments.

Thanks to our sales partners Inpress for setting up this popup bookshop and inviting us to come along.
Do we need to book? If so, how?
Hi Carol, no, I think it’s just a turn up and enjoy. I did ask Inpress if we should set up an eventbrite but they said no. Thanks, Cherry
