Things I Did While I Was Dead by Rosie Garland (aka Rosie Lugosi) Book launch, author reading & signing
Rosie Garland (aka Rosie Lugosi) will be reading from, and signing copies of, her remarkable new poetry collection - Things I Did While I Was Dead. This is Rosie's first performance of 2010, following her successful fight against throat cancer.
Powerfully articulating themes as diverse as relationships, childhood, serial-killers and gender, this passionate and thought-provoking new collection showcases Rosie’s affecting and award-winning poetry. And, as with her previous collections under the guise of alter-ego Rosie Lugosi, it has a deliciously determined bite.

'She is the mistress of language, whether it’s making you laugh or informing your emotions. Here is a courageous artist with guile and expertise in equal measure' - Gerry Potter
