Poetry & Punk is a guided reading and discussion hosted by Kitaab Club of selected works from the punk literary canon, followed by a live punk set by the band, Jaded Clowns 

Kitaab Club is a community of students, writers, acedmics and artists building a culture of reading. They bring people who love literature and music together around the city.

Jaded Clowns are a collective animated by the belief that sound can carry the same urgency as a poem. Their performances draw on the spirit of punk: immediate, raw, and resistant to polish, where distortion and rhythm become forms of expression rather than ornament.
