Oct 19 - 22 | Coach House Poets are Well Represented at the Vancouver 125 Poetry Conference

October 19, 2011 - 9:15am - October 22, 2011 - 7:00pm

As always, the annual Vancouver 125 Poetry Conference will focus on the new generation of Canadian poets - that is, poets whose first book came out after 1990. (This ain't pop music, folks!)

The event promises to be a dynamic gathering of innovative literary minds, with workshops, panel discussions and poetry readings. It's also going to be a veritable who's who of Coach House talent.

Look out for David McGimpsey whose collection Li'l Bastard hits stores this fall, as well as Sina Queyras who's coming out with her first novel, Autobiography of Childhood. Participants also include previous, but no less beloved, Coach House poets Christian Bök, Jen Currin, Margaret Christakos, Jeramy Dodds, Jon Paul Fiorentino, Gabe Foreman and Helen Guri.
