The Queensland Poetry Festival – held at the Judith Wright Centre in Fortitude Valley in Brisbane last weekend – invited Jean Kent to join the raft of national and international poets featured on the festival roster.  Jean read from her new collection Travelling with the Wrong Phrasebooks on Saturday and again on Sunday.  The books themselves arrived from the printers just in time, and the festival bookstore did a brisk trade in both the hard back and paperback versions.

Each of which, by the way, are now available for purchase on-line from our friendly, easy to use Emporium.
