Bad Language in January: Rosie Garland

Please note this is an 18+ event

Our first headliner in 2017 will be the incomparable Rosie Garland.

Tagged ‘literary hero’ by The Skinny, Rosie’s passion for language was nurtured by libraries. Her debut novel ‘The Palace of Curiosities’ won the 2012 Mslexia Novel Competition & was nominated for both The Desmond Elliott and Polari First Book Prize. ‘Vixen’ was a Green Carnation Prize nominee. Third novel ‘The Night Brother’ is due June 2017.

Her latest poetry collection, ‘As in Judy’ (Flapjack Press) has just been published. She sings with post-punk band The March Violets, & is currently developing a new musical project, Time-Travelling Suffragettes.

Open mic spots for this event are available from 10 January – no earlier. See our open mic page for details.

Wednesday 25 January 2017 7.30pm at The Castle pub, Oldham Street, Manchester. Free admission.
