No real information on the Poetic Research Bureau website (and I’m too busy to collect it myself) but this looks like a great reading and meeting of the coasts (and countries). These three are all old friends of mine so this will be especially fun, kind of a reunion of “post-Language” poets from the 90s.

Jeff Derksen was early associated with the Kootenay School in Vancouver and is now an achieved scholar of globalization (and poetics) up at Simon Fraser with several great books of poems under his belt. Rachel Levitsky is also very accomplished and the editor of the Belladonna publishing series. And of course David Buuck is just a nut who often attacks podiums when performing – most of you in L.A. who regularly attend poetry readings have probably seen him standing on his head.

I’m being flip, more real information later…
