Friday 16th January – Poets’ Cafe, at South Street Arts Centre, South Street, Reading, RG1 4QU – 8pm doors – £4/£5
To start the year off, Adrian Blamires and Terry Cree, both fine Two Rivers Press poets, will appear at the Poets’ Cafe. That’ll be good, and wrapped around them is the usual open mic. So come and read, listen and go home again.
It’s worth noting that this event will, for one time only, be held in a yurt. The yurt will be in our usual room, which makes it practically civilised. (The yurt will be there because this show is on the following week and we’ll be interrupting rehearsals.)
Buy Adrian and Terry’s poetry collections.

“Things may come and things may go but the art school dance goes on forever” is the title of a song by Beat poet Pete Brown which gave John Froy the title of his second autobiographical memoir. The Art School Dance focuses on his years at the University of Reading and Falmouth School of Art in the 1970s and is related with verve, honesty, humour and an attention to detail that makes it a riveting read.
We will be there (with all of our books, of course) as part of the the Forbury Family Fringe Day, part of the

It was something of an anniversary fest, for not only is it Two River Press’ 20th, but Matt’s Prequel and Sequel had been written to mark 200 years since Edward Lear’s birth. And the evening began with excerpts from Marinetti’s Futurist Manifesto on men’s clothing which by chance turned 100 that week. So altogether, a remarkably festively nonsensical time was had by everyone.
”….Terry Cree quickly drew me in with his delightful use of words and immaculate pencil sketches. Cree’s use of language and images feed off each other to make an unusual book.”

A review of Robert Gillmor’s newest book, 
The many layers of stone and sediment found beneath the surface of the rock reflect the drama of the landscape itself. Covered in decades of industrial soot and grime, the colours released by the carver’s tools will likely never return to shades of black and grey, but become a small reminder of the changes that our natural environment undergoes, and the marks, small and large, of humankind.
