NORTH BEACH POETRY NIGHTS is pleased to present Chloe Poems as SPECIAL GUEST POET on Thursday November 23rd, at 9pm at BK's Winebar, Spanish Parade, Galway.

Chloe Poems is one of the most radical forces on the British performance poetry scene and one of the most prodigiously gifted and accessible poets alive today. Chloe Poems has been described as ‘an extraordinary mixture of Shirley Temple and pornography.’

‘A compelling advocate, slamming out a verbal rhythm with the pugnacity of a bare-knuckle fighter’ The Independent

‘A massive rising star of enormous talent has emerged’ Gay Times

The Poetry Slam follows the usual format and welcomes newcomers. Please bring along two 3 minute pieces.
