Cotyledon Book Launch

more poetry, to more people, in more places

Vancouver Poetry House | Verses Festival of Words

Cotyledon is filled with the poems that poets haven’t been able to share on slam stages, poems that are unconventional, poems that were crafted gently, and haven’t found a home for yet, poems that started out as a whisper, a brave thought, or an inkling. Poems that dream the world into a future poets want to be in.Funds raised from this book will go towards supporting the organization’s youth programming. The chapbook will be shared in youth-focused spaces.Cotyledon prioritizes the voices of BIPOC, LGBTQ2S+, disabled, neurodivergent, and low-income writers and highlights the work of youth poets. Cotyledon includes works by Hailey Orrange, Catherine Garrett, Kiranjit Shoker, Monica Xin, Celine Tsai, Gabriela Martinez, N. Lema Lubendo, Brinda Sarma, Preeti Shah, Aslı Sözen, Rosa Hernandez, Sujash Purna, Avery Shannon, Dana De Samedi, Amanda Wong, Franz (the poet), Aurin Shaila Nusrat Sheyck, Ivy Edad (Ruthless), Cory McRae, Noémie Boucher, Yana Fershtein, Sammie Lee Wilhoit, LJ Weisberg, Gabriela Martinez, Amelia Coventry, Amanda Wong, S.
