Ottawa International Writers Festival presents Shannon Webb-Campbell in Conversation with Lee Maracle

October 27, 2018 @ 8:00 pm

Ottawa International Writers Festival presents Shannon Webb-Campbell, author of I Am a Body of Land, in conversation with Lee Maracle.

If poetry is a place to question, I Am a Body of Land, by Shannon Webb-Campbell, is an attempt to explore a relationship to poetic responsibility and accountability, and frame poetry as a form of revisioning. Reconsidering individual poems and letters, Webb-Campbell’s confessional writing circles back, and challenges what it means to ask questions of her own settler-Indigenous identity, belonging, and attempts to cry out for community, and call in with love.

Please note this is a ticketed event. Purchase tickets here.
