Put this into your diary: Norbert Hirschhorn’s To Sing Away the Darkest Days – Poems Re-imagined from Yiddish Folksongs, will be launched on 11 June at 7pm in the lovely London Jewish Cultural Centre.

The LJCC is based in Ivy House, the former home of Prima Ballerina Anna Pavlova, 94-96 North End Road, London NW11 7SX. We’re delighted that the LJCC has agreed to host this event.

You’re invited to the launch of a fascinating poetry collection. It’s a great opportunity to meet the poet Norbert Hirschhorn, and hear him recite a few of his poems, in his own inimitable style, from To Sing Away the Darkest Days – Poems Re-imagined from Yiddish Folksongs.

While we listen to some of the original Yiddish folksongs, drinks and nibbles will be served. You will be able to purchase your own copy of the collection and get it signed by the author.

This is a free event and to be added to the guest list or for press inquiries please contact the publisher: bernadette@hollandparkpress.co.uk or 07792611929.
