In this celebration, we’ll hear work from Kent-based poets who were inspired by her, SM Jenkin (co-author of Rosemary's last completed work 'Unspeakable' which alongside Richard Cooper, Rosemary's husband she will be reading from), Setareh Ebrahimi and Clair Meyrick, plus launch a new collection of her poems and art.
