Poetry & writer's events in Wirral & Merseyside.  

Clare Kirwan is a quirky performance poet, comedian and writer based in Wirral and active in Liverpool's Dead Good Poets Society Welcome to a world where silence speaks many languages,  bones grow in gardens, and the birdsong is only in your head. A world where all things are made of glass but breakages need not be paid for, where moments are crystallized: the lollipop man murdered, the iron statue running for it, and your mum planning world domination.
