We're excited to announce the launch of the Aryamati Prize winner Katrina Dybzynska's debut poetry chapbook, "Secrets of the Dictator's Wife". Join us on Tuesday, April 25th at 7:30 pm BST on Zoom for an evening of poetry performances, discussion, and a Q&A session with Katrina Dybzynska.
Through the eyes of the dictator's wife, Katrina paints a world of mystery and intrigue, where the lines between loyalty and betrayal are blurred, and the true nature of power is constantly called into question.
Don't miss this chance to delve into the secrets of the Dictator's Wife and uncover the hidden truths that lie beneath. The event will be held on Zoom and you can sign up here.
We can't wait to see you there!
Poets who have a manuscript that could speak to the Aryamati theme of social change and/or peace, check out the guidelines for the 2023 prize here.
That's all for now, scribblers. Hope to see you at these exciting events!
Best,
Isabelle Kenyon
