Book Launch: Banana Girl by Paris Rosemont

Come and join us here at WestWords on November 8th to celebrate the launch of Paris Rosemont's Banana Girl! The book launch starts at 7pm and ends 9pm. Join us and enjoy poetry, bananas, banana cake, banana paddle pops and all things banana. 

Paris Rosemont's debut collection, Banana Girl, traverses topics that are at once deeply personal, yet universal - explorations of love, loss and heartbreak, lust, sex and violence, the complexity of shifting power dynamics, peppered with a smattering of social commentary. As a second generation Asian-Australian, Paris also explores issues of identity and displacement, reclaiming power through her literary expression. 

'I hope these poems will speak, sing and howl for you, in the way that they speak, sing and howl to me, - ali whitelock. 

'Paris' poetry sparkles with originality of voice, integrity of feeling, sass, sensuality, depth of thought, rebellion, and tenderness.' - Mark Tredinnick OAM
