SUMMARY:Urban Matters: Poetry in the City
DESCRIPTION:Join authors Daniela Elza and Daniel Cowper for a launch\, reading\, and discussion on celebration of the life of a city and an interrogation of its cost on our well-being. \n— \nDaniela Elza was longlisted for the 2024 CBC Poetry Prize for poems from her latest book SCAR/CITY (McGill-Queen’s University Press\, 2025). Her debut prose collection Is This an Illness or an Accident? (Caitlin Press\, 2025) delves into the conflicts and contradictions of what it means to belong\, to work\, and to find home. Daniela is the recipient of the 2024 Colleen Thibaudeau Award for Outstanding Contribution to Poetry. \nDaniel Cowper’s poetry and critical writing has appeared in numerous publications in Canada\, the US\, Ireland\, and the UK. His poems have been collected in The God of Doors (winner of the Frog Hollow Press Chapbook contest) and Grotesque Tenderness (MQUP\, 2019). His latest work is Kingdom of the Clock\, a novel in verse about urban life. He is a contributing editor with New Verse Review\, and lives on Bowen Island.
