SUMMARY:Jana Prikryl Launches No Matter: Poems
DESCRIPTION:Poet Sina Queyras talks to Jana Prikryl about her new collection\, No Matter. \nJANA PRIKRYL is the author of two books of poems\, No Matter and The After Party\, which was one of The New York Times‘s Best Poetry Books of the Year. Born in the former Czechoslovakia\, she grew up in Canada from the age of six. Her poems have appeared in The New Yorker\, The London Review of Books\, The Paris Review\, and The New York Review of Books\, where she is a senior editor and the poetry editor. \nAbout the book:\nAn urgent\, visionary collection of poems from the author of The After Party \n“One of the most original voices of her generation.”—James Wood \nJana Prikryl’s No Matter guides the reader through cities—remembered and imagined—toppling past the point of decline and fall. Conjured by voices alternately ardent\, caustic\, grieving\, but always watchful\, these soliloquies move from free verse through sonnets and invented forms\, insisting that every demolition builds something new and unforeseen. In reactionary times\, these poems say\, we each have a responsibility to use our imagination. \nNo Matter is an elegy for our ongoing moment\, when what seemed permanent suddenly appears to be on the brink of disappearing. \n〰️️〰️️〰️️ \nLibrairie Drawn & Quarterly recognizes that our events and bookstores are located on the unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka. Many of us refer to Montreal as our home\, but it is named Tiohtiá:ke. This has always been a gathering place for many First Nations and continues to be home to a diverse population of Indigenous peoples. It is important to think about how each and every one of us has arrived here. We are grateful that creating and sharing stories has been a part of this land for thousands of years and we urge you to seek out a story that is different from your own. \n〰️️〰️️〰️️ \nLa Petite Drawn and Quarterly Accessibility information: \n– Our event space uses StopGap.ca ramps in an effort to encourage accessibility. Both the step at the entrance\, followed by a half step and a door have StopGap ramps. The door opens inward and is not automated. Once inside\, there are no additional steps.\n– It is not a sober space\, our events sometimes offer alcohol. \n♥️ Please email events@drawnandquarterly.com if you have any accessibility needs we can accommodate (for example\, saving you a seat if you have mobility needs) for you to be able to enjoy our events\, worry-free\, and feel free to contact us for any concerns you may have ♥️
