Odd Sundays, Fredericton

odd sundays at molly’s is back with enthusiasm!
Sunday, October 15, 2pm, Molly’s Coffee House, 554 Queen Open Set / Discussion (new this season) —Bring your thoughts on, Music and Literature: A marriage of convenience and ecstasy

odd sundays at molly’s (Fredericton’s longest-running poetry reading series) has begun its fall-winter 2006 schedule and you are all welcome! This coming Sunday we are focusing on the intertwining of music and literature. For the open set, a tradition at odd sundays, bring your poem, your short piece of prose, or your song lyric. Maybe one of you will bring a guitar and sing your own song for us! The discussion following will concentrate on the intermingling of music and literature. When does a piece of writing have the form and musical quality of a song? Does the outpouring of the poet’s own thoughts and feelings make a poem lyrical—lyre or no lyre (but no liars, please)? What place does the ear have in poetry? Or in prose?

Join us at odd sundays at molly’s for an interesting Sunday afternoon, engaging in the vast (and sometimes profound) literary conversation that envelops us all. Info:
