#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
It went on to win Book of the Year at the NSW Premier's Awards, and to be set to music by 23 composers, but here's our chance to celebrate these inner-Brisbane poems where they began. Fellow poet Phil Brown joins Samuel Wagan Watson and a guest reader or two to share some Smoked Encrypted Whispers in the heart of West End.
