Worcestershire’s former Poet Laureate, Suz Winspear, is preparing to launch her  full length poetry collection this month and she wants YOU to help her celebrate the occasion.

On January 14th – this Sunday – Suz and friends will be at Drummonds, in Worcester City Centre, to mark the launch of the no-doubt glorious, The Awkward People. Doors will open at 3:30pm for a prompt 4:00pm start and, over the course of the afternoon, you will have the chance to hear Suz read a number of pieces published within the collection, alongside readings from fellow poets and performers invited by Suz herself.

It will be a wonderful occasion and Suz – indeed, the whole LitFest and Fringe team – would be delighted if you could come on down and celebrate with us. There will be poetry, there will be books for sale, and there will be Suz in all of her Gothic glory, ready to entertain. So mark this Sunday on your calendars and get on down to Drummonds for something special to start your poetry year.
