Nov. 17, 7:30 p.m. | R.M. Vaughan | Pervatory book lauch | BMO Studio Theatre, Saint John
The Lorenzo Society is hosting a book launch for R.M. Vaughan’s final novel Pervatory. Vaughan was a prolific writer, arts critic, and activist, as well as a graduate from UNBSJ and he will be greatly missed by all.
Vaughan’s last novel is a robust, witty, and vivid account of the arts scenes in both Toronto and Berlin, queer desire, the dangers of obsession, and the impacts of self reflection; the launch will focus on the novel, as well as discuss Vaughan’s larger legacy.
Feature readings from Anne Forrestall, Clarissa Hurley, Mark Blagrave, thom vernon, Meredith J. Batt and Jamie Kitts.
Reception will follow and books will be available for purchase.
The event is free to attend.
