Into the Moonlit Village is a collaborative book of poetry and art about the Battle of Crete by Poli Tataraki and Michael Winters. In ways that commemorate and lament the sacrifices made, this presentation will showcase how poetry and linocuts sensitively combine to convey how ANZAC soldiers and the local population grappled on Crete with the Nazi invasion. You will hear selected readings by the poet as you view projections of the corresponding linocut images. Both poet and artist will also share their artistic journeys.

Bill Bunbury will talk briefly on the battle of Crete and conduct a question and answer session with the author.

Stay for afternoon tea. Please RSVP for catering purposes to Email: amrlibrary@amrshire.wa.gov.au or Ph: 9780 5600
