I’mpossible collab

I’mpossible collab asserts the collaborative nature of literary criticism, how as critics we “write, write with, write alongside, or rewrite” literary texts. In ten essays discussing works by contemporary Canadian poets such as Jordan Abel, Oana Avasilichioaei, Dionne Brand, Anne Carson, Kaie Kellough, Annick MacAskill, Erín Moure, M. NourbeSe Philip, and Lisa Robertson, scholar and poet Klara du Plessis explores the critic’s interpretive agency and the valuable playfulness of pursuing our own insights, proposing a more fluid, organic, and open-ended approach to how we think and write about poetry.
