Welcome to an afternoon of words and wonder. We are honoured to present a unique gathering of voices: James Shea, Tim Tim Cheng, and Eric Yip. Each poet brings a distinct style, offering us glimpses into their newest collections. This event is a mixed conversation and reading where the poets share not only their latest work but also insights into their creative journeys.
