Liz Niven launches 'The Shard Box' on Friday 17 Sept at Midsteeple

dgArts launches Liz Niven’s new collection of poems The Shard Box  at 7.00pm on FRIDAY 17th September at Midsteeple.  Free admission - hope to see you there!
A new review by Janet Paisley says:
“There is fine writing in the Shard Box, crafted with vision, warmth and shafts of devastating insight. Under Liz Niven’s scrutiny, China opens like a lotus blossom, secretive, then revealed. Cambodia springs into full-blooded view. The same honesty wraps care round a dying father, and lets a daughter launch, unhindered, into adult life. Poignant and potent, these shards create a global journey, connecting the familial to the unfamiliar, revealing through small things our vast, culpable humanity.”
