Five Weeks Book Launch
My friend and fellow poet Patrick Pilarski joins the ranks of published Edmonton authors today, with the launch of Five Weeks, his collection of haiku and haibun. Alongside folks like Thomas Trofimuk, Linda Goyette, Gail Sobat, Todd Babiak, and Mingus Tourette, he’s in good company.
I haven’t seen the book yet, but I know Patrick’s work, and he definitely deserves to be counted among Edmonton’s top authors. I’ll be picking up a copy of the book tomorrow night, and will write a review in the coming weeks.
Details:
Wednesday, July 25th, 8:00pm
The Kasbar Lounge (under Yianni’s Taverna, 10444 – 82 ave.)

Throughout the evening copies of the chapbook will be on sale at special launch discount price of $10.
