ZoomMuse Poems for Peace reading on Thursday 21 April
When Adelia MacWilliam, Andrew Hall and I re-focused Zoomuse as Poems for Peace last September, we had no idea Europe would be plunged into war the way it has two months ago by Russia’s invasion and genocide in Ukraine. This month on Zoomuse Poems for peace we have two internationally-known poets with ties to that part of the world. I hope you’ll join us. Details:
