SUMMARY:Panel: Speaking the Unspeakable: Black Migration\, Living Transformations
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, April 19th at 7pm\, join Massy Arts Society\, Massy Books and the Beaumont Studios for Speaking the Unspeakable: Black Migration\, Living Transformations\, an evening of conversation in celebration of Suzette Mayr’s new award-winning book The Sleeping Car Porter. \nA thrilling\, visceral novel that explores labour\, desire and memory\, The Sleeping Car Porter highlights an often overlooked part of the past through the perspective of a queer Black man. In conversation with Wayde Compton\, author of The Blue Road\, the two will speak on the topic of unspeakable histories – unspeakable in how racism in the razing of Hogan’s Alley is guised under “urban renewal” and in the ways Black queerness is untold and hidden from our past. This illuminating evening\, moderated by poet and spoken word artist\, Brandon Wint with a musical opening by Khari Wendell McClelland\, invites us to consider invisibility/visibility and to re-examine what has been forgotten. \nThis project has been made possible by the Government of Canada. Ce projet a été rendu possible grâce au gouvernement du Canada. \nHeader Image Credit: Library and Archives Canada (PA-212572). From left to right: Shirley Jackson\, Pete Stevens\, Harry Gairey and Jimmy Downes. \nTickets \nTickets for this event are $15. There are also tickets at $10 available for Indigenous\, Black\, queer\, disabled and community members with intersections that typically exclude them from accessing literary events.

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP: Interior Dialogues: Poetry Workshops with Kerry Gilbert and Al Rempel
DESCRIPTION:Workshop with Kerry Gilbert: \n“Good writing gives energy\, whatever it is about.”—Marilyn Hacker\nHow can you make your writing more attractive to readers by paying close attention to energy? This workshop explores ideas around the core principles of energy\, including movement/heat\, leaps/gaps\, energetic word choice\, and the use of specifics. “Energy gives your writing power\, drama\, originality\, and life. Energy is what makes your creative writing stand out from everyone else’s” (Heather Sellers). This will be a hands-on exploration\, with some literary models to look at\, and a lot of room for experimentation in your own writing during the workshop. \nWorkshop with Al Rempel: \nWhat does zooming\, spelunking\, and tumbling have in common? Find out all the ways in Painting Powerful Images\, a workshop that will focus on generating and tightening up your poetic imagery. You will be presented with a few tools and techniques you can take with you into your writing practice\, and there will be time to try them out and ask questions during the workshop.

SUMMARY:Book Launch: The Broken Heart of Winter
DESCRIPTION:📚\nThe Broken Heart of Winter by Judy LeBlanc is available to pre-order from Indigo\, caitlin-press.com\, and your local independent bookstore.\n📚\nIn award-winning writer Judy LeBlanc’s debut novel\, three women are linked by generations of hardship\, displacement\, and the mystery of an eighteenth-century French musket that has been passed down through the LeBlanc family since the time of the Acadian expulsion. A riveting and heart-wrenching look at the effects of cultural trauma on Canada’s Acadian community\, The Broken Heart of Winter takes readers on a riveting ride from modern-day Canada to a 19th-century Maritime island to untangle a family’s web of secrets and lies.\n📚\n“If you are Acadian\, Mi’kmaq\, or a Vietnamese baker working the night shift in Victoria\, BC\, what does survival—physical\, familial\, cultural and financial—look and sound and feel like? This powerful\, beautifully written novel explores the grim historical realities of Acadian expulsion and exile as well as the glorious small and large-scale triumphs of survival in the 1830s and modern-day Canada. A timely and necessary contribution to understanding and empathy for this planet’s perennial population of refugees\, the exiled\, those who perished and those who survived.”\n—Caroline Woodward\, author of Alaska Highway Two-Step\n📚\nLeBlanc will launch her book in Fanny Bay with fellow Caitlin Press authors Andrea Routley (This Unlikely Soil) and Susan Braley (Tilling the Darkness).

Probe the urgent political issues of our times at this Vancouver Writers Fest Special Event\, featuring a literary thriller that Stephen King has called “as good as it gets.” \nBirnam Wood is a fast-paced\, character-driven\, psychologically penetrating work of climate fiction that explores the tense encounter between Birnam Wood—an internally conflicted guerrilla gardening collective\, whose members plant crops on land they don’t own—and an American billionaire who intends to use his newly purchased plot of New Zealand farmland to build an apocalypse bunker. With a title inspired by Macbeth\, Birnam Wood aims Shakespearean wit and drama at our various contemporary crises. \nCome and discover the book that the Globe and Mail\, The Guardian\, Maclean’s\, Vogue\, Kirkus Reviews and more have named one of the most anticipated of 2023. Catton joins award-winning author and esteemed moderator Bill Richardson on Saturday\, March 11 for an incisive conversation about greed\, power\, and reckoning with our global existential threat. \nBooks will be for sale at the event courtesy of Upstart & Crow.
