Book Launch: Voice Lessons by Eve Krakow

Sunday, September 22, 2024, 3-5 pm
Café Le Cheval (5320 Queen Mary Road, Montreal)

Eve Krakow will be launching her book Voice Lessons, A Memoir in Essays (Guernica Editions) on Sunday, September 22 from 3 to 5 p.m. at Café Le Cheval, 5320 Queen Mary Road. Moderated by Julie Matlin. Snacks and coffee will be available for purchase. All welcome!

Voice Lessons is a collection of personal essays about an introvert’s struggle to find her voice—as a singer, a writer, a mother, and a human being. Using traditional narrative and hybrid forms, Eve Krakow explores the early loss of her mother, her innermost anxieties as a young adult, the building of family, the push and pull of heritage and tradition, and more. Juxtaposing shyness in life with boldness on stage, these stories expose the deep-seated need for human connection and belonging.

Eve Krakow is a Montreal writer, translator, singer and mom. Her stories have appeared in Grain Magazine, JMWW, Maisonneuve, and Shy: An Anthology. Through her writing, she seeks to reach others by giving form to that quiet yet insistent inner voice. You can discover more about her work at evekrakow.com.
