SUMMARY:An Afternoon of Poetry: Robyn Sarah at Motel Chelsea
DESCRIPTION:Come on out to Motel Chelsea\, where Robyn Sarah\, author of We’re Somewhere Else Now: Poems 2016–2024\, will be joined by Ken Victor for an afternoon of poetry reading. \nThe event will take place on Sunday\, May 24 at 2PM ET. \nMore details here! \nGrab We’re Somewhere Else Now here! \nABOUT WE’RE SOMEWHERE ELSE NOW \nPoet\, writer\, literary editor\, and musician\, Robyn Sarah has lived in Montreal since early childhood. Her writing began to appear in Canadian literary magazines in the 1970s while she completed studies at McGill University and the Conservatoire de musique du Québec. Her tenth poetry collection\, My Shoes Are Killing Me\, won the Governor General’s Award in 2015. As well\, she has published two collections of short stories\, a book of essays on poetry\, and a memoir\, Music\, Late and Soon (2021)\, that interweaves her youth as a professional-track clarinetist with her return at fifty-nine (after a lapse of thirty-five years) to the piano teacher who was her life mentor. From 2010 until 2020 she served as poetry editor for Cormorant Books. \nABOUT ROBYN SARAH \nA California Review of Books Best Poetry Book of 2025 \nIn her first collection of new poems in a decade\, Robyn Sarah chronicles the pandemic years with quiet wisdom and her flair for meshing the familiar with the numinous.  \nWe’re Somewhere Else Now moves with ease from the particular to the abstract. These are poems of grief and unexpected change\, of quiet awe at the human experience. Each poem is a window for the reader to look into\, “lit room to lit room\,” tracking desultory days of isolation and uncertainty\, while also highlighting reasons to pay attention: playing with a grandchild\, the rarity of a leap year\, the calls of birds.
