Maya Chowdhry and Segun Lee-French, winners of Commonword’s recent ‘30 Poems’ competition, will be launching their debut collections with a joint reading. Maya Chowdhry’s collection, The Seamstress and The Global Garment shows a poet ‘uniquely alive to the possibilities of multiple identities, fused mother tongues and the interweaving of myths’ (Chroma).
Segun Lee-French’s collection Praise Songs For Aliens unveils a poetic voice ‘bathed head and toe in the historical waters of the Negritude champions and in the oeuvre of the great African-American firebrand Amiri Baraka…His words grow tall and strong into magical song’ (Kevin Le Gendre).
