Finnish poet Eeva Maria al-Khazaali brings her distinctive voice to the Etcetera Theatre in Camden with I Would Dream—a deeply personal poetry event.
Known for her romantic and feminist tone, al-Khazaali invites audiences into a rare and intimate reading of both published and previously unreleased work, described as the “most private space she will ever reveal to the world.”
The performance journeys through themes of longing, heartache, and awakening in the presence of a lover—echoes of which can be found in her 2019 book, That I Would Dream About It (Adelaide Books, NY). Her writing is grounded in the belief that women should write their own histories, telling their stories not just to those they love, but to strangers who might one day understand them.
Celebrated for her contributions to auto-fiction, al-Khazaali’s work has drawn praise in Finland and beyond. With her emotionally rich, confessional style, she brings a haunting voice to contemporary poetry.
This one-night-only event promises an evening of vulnerability, memory, and quiet power—an invitation into the poetic inner world of an artist.
