Event Description
Katrina Naomi talks about and reads from her latest collection Battery Rocks. She returned to this popular Penzance swimming spot every day for a year, with each swim discovering something fresh and invigorating, whether an encounter with a bull seal or a jellyfish, an insight into the scourge of second homes, or a realisation about herself. Katrina’s first full poetry collection since the critically acclaimed Wild Persistence in 2020, Battery Rocks is a meditation on nature, risk and swimming, and includes ‘in the kelp forest’, which won the prestigious Keats-Shelley Prize for Poetry.
