I have a poem in Best Canadian Poetry 2027 and will be reading along with a slew of poets at the Toronto International Festival of Authors.. Here’s what TIFA has to say:

At a moment when ideas of Canadian identity, culture and belonging are being challenged and reshaped, poetry offers a powerful space to reflect, resist and reimagine. Selected by award-winning poet and editor Tolu Oloruntoba, Best Canadian Poetry 2027 gathers some of the most compelling poems published across the country over the past year, capturing the range and vitality of poetry being written today. Oloruntoba and series editor Anita Lahey introduce the latest edition, accompanied by readings that bring voices from the anthology to the TIFA stage. Discover poetry that reflects, subverts and transcends our present moment, and asks anew: what makes a great poem?
