Compiled to celebrate ten years worth of limited edition chapbooks and broadsides, The Anstruther Reader tracks the evolution of Anstruther Press, one of Canadaโs most prominent micropresses. Featuring notable authors such as Klara du Plessis, Tolu Oloruntoba, David Ly, Rebecca Salazar, David Barrick, Fawn Parker, and T. Liem, The Anstruther Reader makes a case for the pressโs reputation as a launching pad for emerging and established poets alike, and spotlights its mandate to publish poetry that both pushes against and expands the boundaries of Canadian literature.

The event represents the lyrical, but an attempt at defining the event endlessly defers meaningโpoetry readings, death, belonging, the digital andโ Post-Mortem of the Event is a cyclical archive that twists back to recorded readings of Klara du Plessisโs earlier Hell Light Flesh and leans forward to invoke a still unwritten manuscript. Here poetic composition encompasses audiovisual media, transcription, wave form visualization, and digital humanities and interdisciplinary methods. With the maturity of three previous collections, Du Plessis presents a brilliant expansion of her musical yet essayistic poetics.
