New Uses for a Wand – Five Leaves New Poets
Fiona Theokritoff’s book New Uses for a Wand is one of two new titles joining the Five Leaves New Poets series this summer.
The poems highlight how we grow and transform ourselves in life, whatever happens to us. Enjoy hearing Fiona share poems about making pots and maps, even blackberry vinegar at Newark’s Inspire Buttermarket.
Fiona is joined by three other poets from the series, who will also read: Nathan Fidler, Julie Burke and Teresa Forrest. A feast of poetry from Five Leaves!
