50th Birthday Poetry Special

In this special episode of Gleetalks, we celebrate not only our 50th birthday this year since Gleebooks was founded in 1975, but our equally long association with poets and poetry. One of our very first book launches was for Lee Cataldi’s poetry collection Invitation to a Marxist Lesbian Party. Since then, we’ve proudly hosted hundreds of poetry launches and readings with some of Australia’s best and best-known poets.To celebrate our 50th, patron Liz Allen hosted a very special evening of poetry with poets Chris AndrewsJudith BeveridgePeter BoylePam BrownJoanne BurnsLaurie DugganJane GibianDebbie LimGreg McLaren and Miroslav Sandevreading some of their poetry, and one of their favourite Australian poems.
