Book Launch | Touch Screen by Philip Armstrong
Scorpio Books and Otago University Press warmly welcome you to the Ōtautahi Christchurch launch of Touch Screen by Philip Armstrong.
Scorpio Books and Otago University Press warmly welcome you to the Ōtautahi Christchurch launch ofTouch Screen by Philip Armstrong. In this absorbing collection the poet dismantles this now ubiquitous term and helps us see its component parts afresh – ‘touch’ and ‘screen’ strangely reconfigured in today’s complex technological world.
Philip Armstrong lives in Ōtautahi Christchurch and teaches literature, writing and human-animal studies at the University of Canterbury. His essay ‘On Tenuous Ground’ won the 2011 Landfall Essay Prize, and his first poetry collection Sinking Lessons (Otago University Press 2020) was the winner of the 2019 Kathleen Grattan Poetry Award.
Thursday 3 July, 5.30pm for a 6pm start at Scorpio Books, 120 Hereford Street, Five Lanes at the BNZ Centre
