Vancouver poet and Governor-General's Award nominee Lisa Robertson reads "Tuesday," "Wednesday," and "Friday" from The Weather, a collection of seven prose poems, each named for a day of the week. The lyrical verse of "Residence at Cambridge" is interpolated throughout the days, the culminating effect of which is a stunningly imaginative recitation on feminist art and politics. Steve Dickison introduces Lisa Robertson and the evening's co-reader, Susan Clark, both of whom have long been affiliated with Vancouver's Kootenay School of Writing.
