SUMMARY:Dialogic Encounter with Rawi Hage
DESCRIPTION:The “Dialogic Encounter” is a two-evening discussion of the recent novel\, “Beirut Hellfire Society”\, by Rawi Hage. On September 30\, Prof. Cornett engages the audience directly both as a group and as individuals in a wide-ranging discussion of the novel\, its techniques and themes\, particularly as it engages with current social\, philosophical and ethical issues. The audience also responds to the discussion and excerpts from the novel with their own brief written texts. These responses form the basis for the dialogue with Rawi Hage in the second session of the “Dialogic Workshop”\, on October 7. The audience’s texts are read out and Hage is asked to reflect on the questions and issues and his own work.

Melissa vit à Montréal. \n/////////////////////////////////////// \nTRAUMA HEAD\nIn 2012\, poet Elee Kraljii Gardiner precipitously lost feeling in\, and use of\, her left side. The mini-stroke passed quickly but was symptomatic of something larger: a tear in the lining of an artery that opened an examination of mortality and crisis. This long-poem memoir tracks the author’s experiences with un/wellness and un/re-familiarity with herself. Shortlisted for the Robert Kroetsch Award for Innovative Poetry\, Trauma Head disturbs and disorders language and syntax to reconcile appearance with experience. \nAGAINST DEATH\nThe nimble\, serious play of the title\, Against Death: 35 Essays on Living\, is an accurate reflection of the range of tones\, approaches\, and experiences with death (which is to say\, living) inside this vibrant\, tender collection. While one need not be grieving to find resonance here\, those who grief has touched will not feel silenced or pushed outside. In eloquent\, luminous prose\, these essays will be a companion to many and will be a collection to return to (againlives inside against). As editor Elee Kraljii Gardiner reminds us\, “To be against something can be to reject or refute it. But to be against death can also mean to be in contact with\, pressed up next to\, to be intimately proximate with mortality.” This is all of us. I am grateful for this gathering and for this expansive (re)framing. —TC Tolbert\, author of Gephyromaniaand co-editor of Troubling the Line: Trans and Genderqueer Poetry and Poetics.

SUMMARY:WORDPLAY  A writing workshop in celebration of creativity and wonder
DESCRIPTION:In a time of busy schedules\, and places to be and people to see\, it can be hard to find the time to simply play. WORDPLAY is a writing play group\, a time in your week reserved for you — a time to connect with the wonder that lies at the heart of words and where they can take us. \nFor a period of six weeks we will meet for two hours of writing projects and prompts designed to welcome the unexpected\, the spontaneous\, and the serendipitous\, culminating in an evening of readings on the last night. \nWhether you are a poet\, a fiction or non-fiction writer\, an aspiring writer\, a musician or a visual or performance artist\, or simply someone who loves the joy of words\, or even scrabble\, boggle or crossword puzzles\, this is an opportunity to entertain what it means to revel\, gambol and cut loose with language. \nWorkshop leader: Carolyn Boll\nA trained dancer\, and recipient of several Canada Council and Quebec multi-media and choreography grants\, author Carolyn Boll is a graduate of The Humber School for Writers. Her poems and short stories have appeared in Lavender Review\, The Gay & Lesbian Review\, and Mayday Magazine\, and her non-fiction writing has appeared in The Dance Current and The Montreal Gazette. Her first book\, a playful partnering between poetry\, image and dance\, is called Social Dance A Book of Ballroom Poetry and was published by Sally Jane Books\, the specialty imprint of indie publisher Headmistress Press.
