Janis Freegard and Matchbox Studios invite you to the launch of “The Continuing Adventures of Alice Spider”, a chapbook of prose poems published by Anomalous Press.
FRIDAY 6TH SEPTEMBER 6PM – 8PM
MATCHBOX STUDIOS
166 CUBA ST
WELLINGTON
Alice Spider is a spinner of words, dancing them around until some spill on to the page. She’s both your one true friend and a trollopy little tart. Alice the Webster is weaving herself a wild, wild life. This prose poem sequence includes drinking champagne in a hot air balloon, an exploration of surrealism and an unusual encounter with a burglar. Welcome to Alice’s labyrinthine web.
“Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety” – these words weren’t first written for Alice Spider, but they should have been. She is a heroine for our times – a multitasker of the human spirit and a joy in all her manifestations. Cherish her, and take her to your hearths. -Mary Cresswell, author of Trace Fossils
Wonderful – have a wonderful time with your launch!!

Defenestration, even…
Good luck Janis. It sounds delightful!
