Writers Read presents: BRICK Literary Magazine

Brick, A Literary Journal celebrates the launch of its winter issue with a special event featuring magazine editors and contributors at Concordia's Writers Read series on Wednesday, December 4.

The event will be hosted by Montreal-based, award-winning writer and Brick editor, Madeleine Thien, alongside poet and Brick publisher, Laurie D. Graham. There will be readings from winter-issue contributors: internationally renowned novelist and critic Lucy Ives and Governor General’s Literary Award-winning author Kyo Maclear, followed by a discussion including writer and Concordia professor Sina Queyras.

“This will be our first-ever Montreal launch,” says publisher Laurie D. Graham. “We’re so excited to connect in person with Brick’s readers and fans in Quebec, and to take part in the literary culture at Concordia.”

Attendees will learn about Brick’s newest issue, which features a formidable collection of work by Amitava Kumar, Deborah Levy, Robert Bringhurst, Joanna Biggs, Victoria Chang, and others; and interviews with Claire Messud, Natalie Diaz, and Claire Keegan. Attendees will also have an opportunity to get deals on subscriptions and Brick merch.
