this too is a glistening: Launch Event

Join poets Alycia Pirmohamed, Pratyusha and Nina Mingya Powles for a special London launch event for this too is a glistening, a collaborative eco-poetry project published by Bitter Melon, with a virtual reading by Jessica J. Lee.

There will be copies of the pamphlet for sale, along with zines, books and limited edition poem prints.

The venue is fully wheelchair accessible. Please note that due to the venue’s rules, ticket booking closes 3 days before the event.

Prose poem, nature diary, poetic inquiry — these paths converge in this too is a glistening, a tender experiment in collaborative writing created over the course of one weekend. Disrupting notions of genre and authorship, this is a tactile and immersive meditation on friendship, creativity, the body and the migrant self, writing against the backdrop of ongoing genocide and environmental degradation.
