Location: The Bookworm
Event Code: BW20D
Four poets gather to read their works and discuss the role poetry can play in contemporary life. Hong Kong poet Nicholas YB Wong is the author of Cities of Sameness and Crevasse, which has been praised as “deft and radically inventive... blows a hole right through our expectation of what contemporary poetry is supposed to look and to sound like” (Ravi Shankar); Japanese poet Markio Nagai is the author of Histories of Bodies, winner of the Benjamin Saltman Prize from Red Hen Press; Canadian Andy McGuire’s poems have appeared in Riddle Fence, Hazlitt, and The Walrus, and he recently released his debut collection, Country Club; and Canadian Michael Crummey’s poetry (Arguments with Gravity, Hard Light, Under the Keel, etc.) has been described as generous, genuine, rich, and warm, with some form of grace always present to redeem whatever hardships his characters endure.
