On Life, Death, and Mutability: Jo Shapcott, Pascale Petit and Anna Woodford is a 2010 Durham Book Festival event.
In 'Of Mutability', Jo Shapcott looks squarely at mortality. The poems in this new collection celebrate each waking moment as though it might be the last and take pleasure in the wonder of even the smallest encounters. Reading alongside Jo will be Pascale Petit, whose new collection, What the Water Gave Me, features poems written in the voice of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. More than just a verse biography, the book evokes how art works on the pain spectrum. They will be joined by Anna Woodford, who will be reading from her widely anticipated first collection, Bird House.
