POSTER: http://www.nzepc.auckland.ac.nz/events/lounge01_poster.pdf
The LOUNGE readings are a continuing project of the New Zealand Electronic Poetry Centre (nzepc), Auckland University Press and Auckland University English Department in association with the Staff Common Room Club at Old Government House.
Secondly, I've made a poetry tape for each of you to supplement the Course Anthology. I can pass them on to Mary to give to you at our next session, on Monday 7th April. Or, alternatively, if you'd rather not wait that long, I can bring them along to the reading on Wednesday. Whichever suits you best.
