Sasha Dugdale at Poetry East

Saturday, 24 Mar 2012

Red House by Sasha Dugdale Sasha Dugdale will be launching her latest collection of poems, Red House (Carcanet/OxfordPoets) at Poetry East in London on 24 March.

Dugdale is an internationally respected poet and translator, lauded as 'one of the most original poets of her generation' (the Guardian). In her latest collection (pictured), Sasha Dugdale evokes the ghosts and presences that flit about on the margins of our lives.

The book launch on 24 March will be hosted by Maitreyabandhu and starts at 7.30 pm. For more details and to book tickets, click here.
