Canisa Lubrin and Hind Shoufani in their latest poetry collections explore the place of art and poetry to offer light and beauty in the darkest times. Canisia Lubrin, already critically acclaimed and internationally celebrated, is one of Canada’s most exciting and provocative poets. Bright Machine is her highly anticipated new collection which, as ever, is stylistically inventive, topically challenging, shining a bright light on humanity. Hind Shoufani is an Oscar-nominated, BAFTA winning Palestinian / American director, writer, editor and poet.
Raoul de Jong is an award-winning Dutch writer and his work has been translated into German, French, and English. He has written for numerous magazines and newspapers, and his novel Jaguarman was nominated for multiple awards.
The author will be in conversation with Canisia Lubrin.
