SUMMARY:Montreal launch of Dreams Before Extinction/Dark Matter:Women Witnessing Anthology
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the launch of this stunning anthology compiling ten years of writing and artwork for Montreal-based Dark Matter: Women Witnessing\, whose mandate is to bring vision to these burning times.  Laura Simms has called the journal “the most important literary magazine today.”  Edited by Lise Weil\, Gillian Goslinga\, Kristin Flyntz and Anne Bergeron\, and with a foreword by G.A. Bradshaw\, Dreams Before Extinction collects essays\, poems and artwork by 67 women—all of it responding to the many  forms of devastation we face in these times.  Editors and 3 local contributors—Kim Zombik\, Yehudit Silverman\, Lise Moisan–will read from and converse about the book.\nDeena Metzger: “That this anthology comes into the world at a time when the world is darkening so\, offers us some ease in our hearts…”\nAzul Thomé: “A mycelium \, a human humus forest is born!!! Hallelujah ya allah mabrouk!!!” \n Wine and refreshments.
