Talonbooks Spring 2010 Poetry Tour touches down in Calgary April 27th 2010

Talonbooks Spring 2010 Poetry Tour

Talonbooks publisher Karl Siegler has put together a wonderful list for us this spring that features eight titles of a poetic nature, a unique accomplishment for the press. We are celebrating by hosting Talon Poetry Nights across the country: a fiesta of neoformalism, as five of the eight titles could be described as such.

Note: If you are interested in having a Talon Poetry Night in your city and are not on the list, or if you would like to have an event, interview, or classroom visit with one of the poets when he is in town for Talon Poetry Night, please contact info@talonbooks.com.
