Dear Janet,
While it is good to know you are organizing poetry events in Perth, I wish
you could put Perth Australia on your information because I live 23 miles
from the real Perth in Perthshire, Scotland, and these messages are catching
me out every time!
no hard feelings,
best wishes
Sally Evans

*3 OCT: Poetic theatrics: Afeif Ismail Abdelrazig and Vivienne Glance*
Be mesmerised by the poetry and inimitable stage presence of AFEIF ISMAIL
ABDELRAZIG and VIVIENNE GLANCE. Afeif, an accomplished poet originally from
Sudan but now gracing Australia with his presence, reads in both English and
Arabic. If you haven't heard Arabic poetry, it sounds amazing. Vivienne is a
poet, playwright, actor and slam-winning poetry performer who has just
published her collection 'The Softness of Water'. Vivienne translates
Afeif's poems into English and performs her own poems.
