Join us to celebrate the launch of David Stavanger's The Drop Off.
David Stavanger is poet, performer, cultural producer, editor and former psychologist. His latest wonderful collection, The Drop Off explores the liminal space of shared custody and societal tropes of the ‘broken family’, this collection is the follow-up to Stavanger’s award-winning Case Notes. A blend of poetry, found text, short-form prose, reportage, and longer poetic non-fiction, this work unravels the day-to-day reality of co-parenting amid growing environmental and class concerns, and the ways we stay afloat.
David will be joined by Andy Jackson, Grace Yee, and Izzy Roberts-Orr on the night. Hosted by Tim Loveday.
Free, but bookings are essential.
