Kitchener-Waterloo Bookstravaganza



Event Date: November 2

Please join us for a celebration of new Canadian literature, happening in Waterloo on Monday, November 2nd. Toronto has its International Festival of Authors. Ottawa, Kingston and Eden Mills have their Writers' Festivals. And now, Kitchener-Waterloo has its BOOKSTRAVAGANZA!

Featuring 8 authors reading from their new books and representing 4 Canadian publishers, the Kitchener-Waterloo Bookstravaganza promises to be a one-stop-shop (or event) for all your literature needs, whether it be fables set in the Manhattan art world, poems about Quantum Theory and Detroit's sixties-era radical underground, novels about teenagers with three mothers and few options or books that reveal the afterlife is really just a romance publishing house. We hope to see you there!
