Brave New Worlds: Canadian Fantasy Writing in 2021

Presented by: Word Vancouver, Vancouver Public Library

Chris Humphreys (VPL’s 17th Writer in Residence) hosts a panel of fellow fantasy writers for a wide-ranging discussion on the fantastic worlds they are creating. Where do their ideas come from? Who are their influences? Is modern fantasy just an escape from reality — or a mirror reflecting our present-day desires and concerns?


Readers:

Kristi Charish, (Voodoo Shanghai: A Kincaid Strange Novel, Penguin Random House Canada)

Sebastien de Castell, (Way of the Argosi, Hot Key Books)
