A monthly series of active reading.

Each month we choose two publications available to read in the Poetry Library - the selection is based on browsing and instinct.

We are mostly interested in reading new work.

In the library we each have 20 minutes to read each publication.

Outside the library we are talking and writing in response: talking (5 minutes) / writing (5 minutes) / reading each other / repeat x 4.

Resulting 12 documents are unedited recordings of live talking and unedited transcriptions of live writing.
