Join us as we launch Best Canadian Essays 2019! Featuring reading from

Larissa Daikiw, Melanie Mah, Anthony Oliveira, Mireille Silcoff, Bruce Whiteman, and editor Emily Donaldson! From the violence subjected upon the queer community, to the vast spectrum that is grappling with one's identity, to a critique of CanLit's critical structure, the essayists in Best Canadian Essays 2019 use the essay form to explore and wrestle - in rich, diverse, and arresting ways - with the issues and concerns of contemporary Canadians. This event is free to attend.
