Communion Book Launch (by sarah)
Monday saw me and Alaric in a Chapel within the Campus of the University of Gloucestershire. We were going to the book launch of Communion a beautiful work of stark images and deeply bleak words.
My friend Anna Saunders had written those words and as always her work was hard hitting and brought forth those sirens of the id. The chapel was atmospheric set out with candles.
We watched a short film of the images and word with haunting music permeating the wonderful acoustics of the building. Then Anna read some of the poems from the book plus some new ones from a work in progress with the same artist.
The Artist Suze Adams images were the perfect accompaniment to Anna's words.
Here is my very poor photography of Anna reading 
This was all followed by wine and a piano accordian player who's name I sadly can't remember.
Alaric as always sat stoically through the whole thing.
You can see larger images by clicking on the photos - I apologies the light levels were obviously very low and I'm still running with a cheap happy snappy!
