Writers on Mondays
23 AUGUST Miss New Zealand: Jenny Bornholdt
When Jenny Bornholdt’s The Rocky Shore won the 2009 Montana Book Award for Poetry, judge Mark Williams remarked that it ‘disobeys the rules that poetry should be compressed rather than sprawling, that it should avoid the personal, that it should eschew ‘unpoetic’ elements, that it should not include digressions or speculations about imponderables.’ Victoria University’s 2010 Writer in Residence reads new work and discusses the imponderables with Kate De Goldi
Writers on Mondays is presented by the International Institute of Modern Letters and The Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa.
The Marae, Level 4, Te Papa, Cable Street, Wellington
