Melanie Jansen and Steve Meyrick @ Readings

Dr Melanie Jansen is a paediatric intensive care specialist, and her powerful poems explore the emotional landscape of this demanding but rewarding work, as well as the challenges and joys of the private life that must be lived alongside her professional one. Steve Meyrick's wide-ranging and deeply reflective collection provides the perfect foil.

Why not join us when they read from and discuss these two quite different books, and find surprising touchpoints that connect them, under the skilful guidance of Tim Loveday? This is a free event and you can register now on the link below.
