Join the three poets from our Fall 2019 catalogue for the joint launch of their poetry collections at Résonance Café in Montreal, QC.

The Danger Model
Madelaine Caritas Longman

Provocatively realistic but also hopeful, The Danger Model is an investigation of how we come to recognize - or not recognize - ourselves and each other. Madelaine Caritas Longman is a PhD candidate in interdisciplinary humanities at Concordia University. This is her first book.

Ganymede's Dog
John Emil Vincent

Deeply infused with gay culture and mythology, Ganymede's Dog is a collection of smart, knowing, allusive, often ironic poems that ponder the boundaries of legend and the privileges of youth and beauty. John Emil Vincent is a poet and the author of Excitement Tax. He lives in Montreal.

Rail
Miranda Pearson

Exploring a diasporic connection between England and Canada, Rail is a journey along the brink between high and low culture, balancing on the edge of the awkward and the elegant. Miranda Pearson is a poet and the author of four previous collections, including Harbour and The Fire Extinguisher. Originally from Kent, England, she lives in Vancouver.
