Tom Jenks: Rhubarb and zimZalla
19 October 2022 @ 18:30 - 19:30
Tom Jenks will perform work from his new volume, Rhubarb (Beir Bua Press), his sixteenth published book. Working in a diversity of innovative forms, he has been featured in the Penguin Book of Oulipo (2019). Tom also edits the experimental small press zimZalla, specialising in literary objects and creative forms https://zimzalla.co.uk/ and will exhibit some of these on the night. After the reading Harriet Tarlo will conduct a Q & A on Tom’s work and on how to found and run a press such as zimZalla. All welcome for what promises to be a brilliant, entertaining and informative evening.
“…the genius of Tom Jenks can be found in his surreal intricacies, his throwaway profundities, his delicious deadpan and in that feeling he leaves you with, not sure whether to laugh or cry” (Vik Shirley)
