Poetry Project Angela Carr, Sept 22nd 2006

Angela Carr will be reading from her just-released collection of poems, Ropewalk. At the core of the book lies a suite of poems that artfully revises the biography of sixteenth-century poet Louise Labé. “These poems are fascinating, difficult as stories constructed ‘under customs of cut and paste’ require a different kind of seeing. They meditate on history, dream, and autobiography as woven together, threads in the ropewalk, over which we traverse the abyss of the past, propelled by desire, memory and imagination.” Mary di Michele

Angela Carr lives in Montreal. Ropewalk is her first book.
