SUMMARY:An Evening with Kate Feld: Deeryard Launch
DESCRIPTION:House of Books & Friends are excited to celebrate the launch of Deeryard\, Kate Feld’s new pamphlet of prose poetry and photographs\, published by Manchester independent press Death of Workers Whilst Building Skyscrapers. Kate will be reading poems from the book and will be joined by her friends Mick Conley and Lydia Unsworth\, who will read some of their own poems. The readings will be followed by a book signing. \nTaking place on Thursday\, 23rd May from 6:30-8pm\, we cannot wait to host this night of poetry and prose! \nTickets \nClick here to buy a book and ticket \nClick here to buy a ticket \nAs always\, there are a handful of complimentary tickets available for those who need them. Please contact us directly on 07597 365380 or email bookworms@houseofbooksandfriends.com. \nAbout the book \nIn Deeryard\, a series of tenderly observed internal states\, natural settings and photographed landscapes serve to collapse the distance between the speaker and the world she inhabits. The poems are acts of orientation\, making their way through phenomenological inquiry toward a new sense of being at home in our lostness. \n“These prose poems are full of music: the sounds of a richly-evoked natural world where ‘something always has to be happening’\, and the sounds of language itself being wrung out for its harmonies. They are both experimental and beautiful\, highly-crafted and instinctive. In Kate Feld’s work\, a relationship with nature seems to be a relationship with the past and a reckoning with the self. If the places in these pieces are real\, then they are made imaginative by the inherent unreliability of memory and language; if they are imagined\, then they are made real by the quality of observation and sensory detail.” – Mick Conley \n“It is remarkable to be brought back into your life when the living of it requires a sort of packaging up and glossing over. Deeryard reclaims the friction. Image and text lead you through situations\, often of sound\, in which the slow accumulation of self-knowledge and the compulsions of non-human life become entangled and momentarily perceivable before slipping out of hand to resume their secret ongoing operations.” – Jenna Collins \nAbout the author \nKate Feld is a writer drawn to the cracks between established categories of form and genre. Her writing has appeared in literary journals including The Stinging Fly\, The Letters Page\, Tolka and Hotel and in The Art of Being Dangerous: Exploring Women and Danger Through Creative Expression (Leuven University Press.) She founded creative nonfiction journal The Real Story in 2014 and teaches journalism at The University of Salford. A native of Vermont\, she has lived for many years in Manchester\, UK with her daughters. Deeryard is her first pamphlet. More of her writing can be found at katefeld.com.
