The last DEAD GOOD Poetry Cafe of 2008 takes place on Thursday 25th September 7pm – 9.30pm.
(Don’t worry, there will be other Poetry Cafe events next month).
Open mic spaces – come early to book a reading slot – plus some very special Dead Good Poets.
Clare Kirwan! Hot from a stunning performance at the Bristol Poetry Festival, last chance to see her before she flits off on her Dead Good Down Under World Tour.
David Bateman! Sizzling from his performance at the Bristol Poetry Festival, staying put but always a joy.
Chris Clarke! Who, despite what her idiot publicist might say, doesn’t ONLY write poems about belly-dancing.
And Aaron Murdoch, who is quite simply indescribable.
Great fun, great poetry guaranteed.
Costa Coffee, Bold Street. Liverpool
Free event but a donation towards the hire of the sound equipment is always appreciated.

Guest poets Paul Durcan and Rebecca Goss
Paul Durcan and Rebecca Goss treat you to their poetry readings.
Dubliner Paul Durcan’s has published seventeen poetry collections.
He has won numerous prestigious prizes and is considered one of the finest poets working today.
“Anyone who has attended one of his electrifying poetry readings and been reduced to hysteria (a common enough occurrence)
can testify to the unique flavour of his work, especially when read aloud by the poet himself” – Catriona O’Reilly
Rebecca Goss taught creative writing at Liverpool John Moores University for several years.
She was this year’s runner-up in the New Writer Competition.
“The language is precise and evocative, the images sharp as a photograph” – Val McDermid
