About the event

Reading by Erín Moure

Western Front and The Capilano Review are pleased to present an evening with writer-in-residence Erín Moure.

The event will begin with a conversation with scholar Alessandra Capperdoni, and will be followed by a reading by Erín Moure from her latest book of poems Theophylline: A Poetic Migration (Anansi, 2023), a work of poetry motivated by asthma, seeking poetry’s futurity in a queer and female heritage. In it, Moure crosses a border as translator, to engage the poetry of three American modernists—Muriel Rukeyser, Elizabeth Bishop, and Angelina Weld Grimké. Moure asks: What is breath for? What is archive? Why write a poem, instead of … something else?
