Joelle Taylor – The Night Alphabet vs. C+NTO & Other Poems

Friday 13 September, The Exchange, Twickenham

Join us for a collision of queer futurism, butch identity, & feminism with award winning poet and author Joelle Taylor. Performing from her electrifying debut novel The Night Alphabet, and TS Prize winning poetry collection C+NTO & Othered Poems, this is a rare opportunity to see both texts back-to-back.

Set across timescales and geographies, The Night Alphabet is a novel about the quantum physics of belonging, the secret language of women, & global female resistance.

C+NTO & Othered Poems was named Polari LGBT Book of the Year as well as given a Saboteur Award, and is a book about community, friendship, and the great grief that eventually leads to hope.
