About this Event

Event blurb:

Join poet Nazaret Ranea for the launch of her debut collection, Nettles. She’ll be

joined by fellow Edinburgh-based poets Gabrielle Tse, Hermione Byron, and

Olivia Calderon for an evening of poetry rooted in belonging, memory, and

identity. Nettles asks what it means to grow up between places, to carry multiple

selves, and to find rootedness in the in-between. This event invites you into that

conversation. This will be a warm and special celebration of the themes at the

heart of the collection. Copies of Nettles will be available on the night, and

Nazaret will be signing books after the readings.


Nazaret Ranea:

Nazaret Ranea is a poet from Málaga, Spain, based in Edinburgh since 2017.

Named one of Scotland’s Next Generation Young Makars, her debut collection

Nettles explores nostalgia, memory, and the shifting notion of home. Her work

appears in over fifty publications in English and Spanish. She is the creator of My

Men and My Women, and editor of For Those Who Tend the Soil, in collaboration

with the Scottish Poetry Library. Nazaret has performed on BBC Radio Scotland

and at festivals including the Edinburgh Fringe, Edinburgh International Book

Festival, and StAnza, where she was the 2025 Poet in Residence.
