The Best Canadian Poetry 2008

The Best Canadian Poetry 2008
Tuesday, November 11 2008, 7 pm
Revival, 783 College Street West (at Shaw) Toronto, Ontario

From a long list of one hundred poems drawn from Canadian literary journals and magazines, this year's guest editor, award winning poet Stephanie Bolster, has chosen fifty of the best Canadian poems published in 2007. With this anthology reader, baffled by proliferating poems and poets, can for the first time tap into the remarkable and vibrant Canadian poetry scene. Readers are invited to explore the currents and cross-currents of poetry in a distinguished volume distilled by a round robin of esteemed editorial taste.

The evenings celebration will include the readings by some of Canada's best poets, including Jim Nason, Dani Couture, Sadiqa de Meier, Michael Lista, Al Mortiz, David Seymour, and more. Canadian Jazz musician Fern Lindzon will be performing.
