Harbour Publishing will hold a book launch and a fund raiser at the Community Arts Council Gallery of Greater Victoria (1001 Douglas Street) on Friday November 27 at 7PM for the Al Purdy A-Frame Anthology, edited by Paul Vermeersch. Victoria’s Poet Laureate Linda Rogers will host the event and poets Susan Stenson, Peter Trower and Len Gasparini will read poems and reminiscences from the anthology. The event, and others like it across Canada, will help raise funds to preserve the late Al Purdy’s A-frame house as retreat for writers.
