NOTES
Type:
General
Note:
George Bowering and Roy Miki discuss creative writing during Bowering’s earlier years, likely when he was younger and at university. They reflect on Canadian poetry, its influence at the time, and explore a wide range of other topics as their conversation continues, including Tish poets, Coach House Books, Reviews, and etc.
Type:
General
Note:
Sides A and B are reversed compared to the labels on the j-card. Roy Miki stops the recording at 17:47 on Side A, after which a conversation is heard among individuals who are now all known. The group appears to include a child and a couple of women, one of whom is Mrs. Kay Kamitakahara, speaking with Roy Miki.
