Happily Drowning - launch 29th Nov 2018 - 6.30pm

Blackwells, Edinburgh

Reading from her vibrant and intense new collection of poems, performance poet Kokumo Rocks launches Happily Drowning, her latest collection born out of a transformative near-death experience in Crete which dramatically altered her outlook on life.

From the Scottish countryside to Nigeria, via the metropolitan high street and childhood experiences, Kokumo paints her world with colour and spirit, exploring themes of love, race, freedom and imprisonment with fun and humour.
