AFTERGLOW: Songs of the City by MaryJane Thomson and Rock & Roll by Mark Pirie

Tuesday 27th September we had our first launch in the new daylight hours. A double header! Beginning with Songs of the City by MaryJane Thomson, her third collection of poetry and fourth book, launched by Fiona Kidman and Mark Pirie. Richard, a friend of Mark’s, stepped up to launch Rock & Roll: Selected Poems. Mark launched his first book here at Unity back in 1999, and these subsequent selected works are a celebration of his some 2,000 poems and several collections since then.
