Book Launch: Paris Light by Jean Kent

Join us for the launch of Paris Light, A Personal Plan de Paris, a book of poems by Jean Kent, with paintings by Martin Kent. Judith Beveridge will be in conversation with Jean and Martin about their collaboration. The couple will share how what began as a tongue-in-cheek attempt to write a poem for each letter of the alphabet evolved into an emotional map of their residencies in Paris, trying to live as locals. Jean will read poems, and some of Martin’s artwork will be on display. Hosted by Linsay Knight.

This is a free event; no bookings required.
