74. Poets on Family and Time
Lorna Crozier (After That) and Susan Musgrave (Exculpatory Lilies) are two of the most celebrated poets in Canada. More than this, there is a warmth to anyone sharing their name or talking about their work; a recognition of the impact of both writers in the literary world and poetry community for more than four decades. In conversation with former Artistic Director of the Festival, Hal Wake, they speak to their latest collections—both deeply moving and bravely revealing explorations of love, deep connections to family, and the process of grieving when they are lost. This promises to be a conversation as gentle as it is intellectually rigorous with people who truly understand how poetry can help to move us through the hardest periods of life. Moderated by Hal Wake.
