Hear Cordelia Strube, Edward Keenan and Tamara Faith Berger interviewed on CIUT

Coach House authors talk during Toronto's Word On the Street

As part of Toronto's 2012 Word On The Street festivities, CIUT 89.5 FM broadcast selected festival programming, including interviews with Coach House authors Cordelia Strube (Milosz), Edward Keenan (Some Great Idea) and Tamara Faith Berger (Maidenhead).

And if you were too busy taking in the day's events and missed the interviews or live outside the GTA, you're in luck - we've posted the full interviews online. (Thanks, CIUT!)
