Thanks to everyone who came out to VMI’s 2019 alumni reading last Sunday afternoon at Havana Cafe Theatre in East Vancouver.
This diverse group of fiction and non-fiction writers kept the audience rapt in their tales of growing up in South Africa, of the Toronto art scene, of experiencing the Paris Attacks, of being raised in a Hindu cult, of growing up in an Italian immigrant family, as well as submerging us in tales of various realms of speculative fiction.
