LET THEIR VOICES BE HEARD

LET THEIR VOICES BE HEARD

A BOOK LAUNCH

You are warmly invited to attend the launching of this recently printed volume of poetry, prose and painting by 25 Australians, some of whom you will know. Their names are printed on the reverse of this page.

This collection was inspired by the success of the book edited by Mac Nicoll, SOME OF MY FRIENDS ARE POETS, which was published in 2009

In this new book, LET THEIR VOICES BE HEARD, you will meet some of those same poets as well as other writers, poets and painters who have willingly contributed to a new volume.

In these pages you will encounter a wide variety of words and images: there is
light and shade, joy and sadness, faith and doubt, fear and delight…..indeed all sorts of human responses to this exquisitely complex and bewildering life that we all live.

The book is to be launched at Church of All Nations, Palmerston Street, Carlton
on Sunday afternoon of May 13th, 2012, commencing at 2.30 p.m. and you are most welcome to attend with your friends and family.

The host chairperson will be John Evans, parish minister at Carlton, supported by Rod Horsfield, who will introduce several of the poets to read their work, and Christina Rowntree who will launch the book. Some of the paintings which appear in the book will also be on display.

Copies of the book will be available at the launch at a cost of $ 20.

When the costs of publishing the book have been met, the net proceeds will go to the Community Support Fund of Church of All Nations, Carlton where Margaret and Mac Nicoll have been members for 45 years. The Fund supports a number of innovative programs run from this local Uniting Church parish.
