About this Event
Cory Lavender, on tour out of Nova Scotia, will read poems from Come One Thing Another (Gaspereau Press, 2024), we're celebrating the Montréal launch of Jesse Eckerlin's new poetry chapbook, Almost Nothing (Anstruther Press, 2024), and will also enjoy a reading from special guest Nyla Matuk, author of Stranger (Véhicule Press, 2016).
Come One Thing Another by Cory Lavender
The larger-than-life characters and stories that tumble out of Come One Thing Another assert the experiences of generations of Lavenders and Roys as a kind of rural epic, transposing ordinary occurrences into the ageless framework of myth and its preoccupation with metamorphosiswith shifting identities and values and the persistent transformations of people and places. Colloquial, humourous, exuberant, shot through with reverie, these poems are carefully-crafted oratory, love songs for a vibrant heritage.
