Launch Event: For Free You'd Never Be
Broadside 123 Allison Street, Glasgow
For free you’d never be is an afternoon dedicated to writing and its intersections with politics and publicness.
Leven St. Press will launch a new series of poems by Deviji RM Jaan, Ross McDiarmid, Joey Simons & Leilani Taneus-Miller. Throughout the day the poets will read their contributions. The poems will be available at Broadside before being distributed through Glasgow public libraries.
Henry Bell will launch his new pamphlet Poems Against Fascism a new set of angry political poems. Henry will read some of the poems throughout the day and the pamphlet will be available for purchase.
Marc Garrett will join us to launch his book Feral Class, a deeply personal and thought-provoking exploration of his early years, chronicling his journey as a working-class artist navigating a world that often rejects them. Marc will read excerpts and enter into dialogue with Judit Bodor.
Broadside will launch its first Broadside—a form of street literature—featuring a text by the poet and writer Danny Hayward, posted on the front of the building and available for a limited run for purchase.
Aye-Aye Books—Glasgow’s long-running art & politics bookshop—will be trading throughout the day, offering 10% off all purchases.
