  • サマリー

  • Metis poet Michelle Porter believes all poetry is inquiry. A journalist by trade, and an academic by training, Porter’s debut poetry collection, Inquiries (Breakwater 2019), beautifully illustrates how she questions herself, her place, and her family through the poetic, and brings us all back to the river. 


    Mixed/adopted Mi’kmaq Newfoundland poet Douglas Walbourne-Gough’s debut collection, Crow Gulch (Goose Lane 2019) unearths an almost forgotten history of a community known as Crow Gulch, a mostly shaded and stigmatized area around Corner Brook built when the newsprint mill was constructed in the 1920s. 


    In this week's episode, you will hear some of the “Red River Jig,” by the Metis Fiddler Quartet, and we will dive into Porter's poem "Childhood, Remembered," and hear an exclusive recording of Walbourne-Gough's "Geraldine Winnifred Walbourne," in order to connect with place, memory, and ancestry through poetry.
