Some Girls’ Mothers In Leicester
Posted on 5th May 2010
‘Touching, wounding and humbling.’ – Simon Armitage
One of the most successful and engaging literature tours of recent years will be arriving in Leicester this spring during Adult Learners Week. Some Girls’ Mothers will be appearing at Knighton Library on Tuesday 18th May.
Best friend or bete noir? How does the mother/daughter relationship colour women’s lives? In Some Girls’ Mothers six authors share their stories on stage and in print.
Back by popular demand, SOME GIRLS’ MOTHERS will be touring the UK throughout 2010 until spring 2011 with a series of readings, discussion and workshops about the themes raised in this powerful and critically acclaimed book. Last year’s tour was a great success, revealing a level of emotional engagement and audience response unprecedented for tours of this nature.
‘Adept in the use of metaphor (they) portray the peculiar dance of independent daughters trying to guide their mothers towards truthful communication…recommended.’ – Diva
