CoPP | PPLS | WRITING | elegy - Australian Poetry | Friday 6 September 2024 | 6.30 pm onwards

[Edited extract from public address]

elegy (in modern literature) is a poem of serious reflection, typically for the dead.

Join Port Phillip Library Service (PPLS) for a poignant poetry event where four poets will explore the theme of writing in honour of the dead. Together, they will share their elegiac poetry, reflecting on grief from both individual and collective perspectives.

This event will be hosted by Maggie Knight-Williams, Izzy Roberts-Orr, Jeanine Leanne and Thabani Tshuma. It will be a blend of performance and discussion as the writers delve into the ethical considerations and implications of elegy.
