SUMMARY:Véhicule Showcase: Who Gets Remembered?
DESCRIPTION:What do a coming-of-age novel that takes place in Bombay\, a collection of essays on forgotten women jazz musicians\, and a novel that celebrates Montreal and a ghost have in common? All three books are amazing and entertaining acts of remembering or recovery. Come and meet Zeenat Nagree\, David Homel\, and Éric Dupont in conversation with Dimitri Nasrallah.

SUMMARY:Seeing Things: Lee Lai and Arizona O’Neill in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:From spectral magpies to Frankenstein’s Monster (actually he much prefers “Frankie”)\, unsettling visions haunt the protagonists of Cannon and Opioids & Organs\, two of the most talked-about graphic narratives this year. Join Montreal authors Lee Lai and Arizona O’Neill for a freewheeling conversation about blurring the boundaries between the real and the imaginary\, tackling “intergenerational trauma shit” both obliquely and head-on\, and why the comic book medium is the ideal form for true stories\, invented tales\, and everything in between. Featuring short readings from both authors. Moderated by François Vigneault.
