Garry Gottfriedson, Rita Wong, and Joanne Arnott at the Vancouver Public Library

Join critically acclaimed BC poets Garry Gottfriedson, Rita Wong, and Joanne Arnott for a poetry reading to celebrate the release of Garry Gottfriedson‘s Skin Like Mine, a bold collection in which Gottfriedson tackles issues facing first nations today. Through their poetry, these three authors have explored the rhythms of the land, the rhythms of the body and the destruction that can be caused to both. Rita Wong is the author of Forage (2007) and Joanne Arnott is the author of Mother Time (2007).
