Join us for the launch of Vampire Squid by Prema Arasu!

Full of wry wit and ironic scrutiny, Vampire Squid explores the ocean’s dark depths, a place where observing the unknown can reveal unexpected truths about ourselves. Prema will be in conversation with Catherine Noske.

This debut poetry collection launches Thursday 12 February at 6.00 PM at Forrest Hall, UWA. The event is free to attend, but please RSVP through the Fremantle Press Humanitix: https://events.humanitix.com/vampire-squid-launch

Copies of Vampire Squid will be available to purchase on the night and Prema will be signing them. Light refreshments will be provided.

Vampire Squid is a unique voice and perspective in science-based literature, perfect for readers with an interest in poetry, deep-sea creatures and research, and science fiction.
