By the end of 1964, he had met poet Raymond Souster and founded Island Magazine and Island Press, drawing the avant-garde poetry centre from the West Coast to Toronto. Mr. Coleman was a publishing assistant for the Oxford University Press in Toronto from 1966 to 1967, after which he served for almost ten years as the editor for Coach House Press. Coleman was influential in the creations of Is, Image Nation, The Goose & Duck and Open Letter magazines and journals. He published his own poetry in From Erik Satie’s Notes to the Music (Island Press, 1965),  One/eye/love (Coach House Press, 1967), Light Verse (Coach House Press, 1969), Old Friends’ Ghosts: Poems 1963-68 (Weed/Flower, 1970), along with a dozen other titles. Victor Coleman was the director of the “A Space” (1975-1978), “31 Mercer” (1975-1978), Nightingale Arts Council in Toronto, the editor and writer for the Association of Non-Profit Artist-Run Centres, and has served as the director of the National Film Theatre in Kingston, Ontario. The poet also taught Creative Writing at both Queen's and York Universities. In 1995, as Coach House Press struggled, Coleman and Stan Bevington created Coach House Books to save the Press. In 2001, Victor Coleman became the Editorial Director for the Centre for Contemporary Canadian Art, a website devoted to the promotion of Canadian artists and writers. Victor Coleman continues to promote the development of avant-garde or postmodernist Canadian writing.\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\",\"Performer\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/34469976\",\"name\":\"Bowering, George\",\"dates\":\"1935-\",\"notes\":\"Mentioned, but missing from recording\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[]}]"],"contributors_names":["Francis, Wynne"],"contributors_names_search":["Francis, Wynne"],"contributors":["[{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/77926194\",\"name\":\"Francis, Wynne\",\"dates\":\"1918-2000\",\"notes\":\"\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Presenter\",\"Series organizer\"]}]"],"Presenter_name":["Francis, Wynne"],"Series_organizer_name":["Francis, Wynne"],"Performance_Date":[1967],"material_description":["[{\"side\":\"\",\"image\":\"\",\"other\":\"\",\"extent\":\"1/4 inch\",\"AV_types\":\"Audio\",\"tape_brand\":\"Scotch\",\"generations\":\"\",\"Conservation\":\"\",\"equalization\":\"\",\"playback_mode\":\"Mono\",\"playing_speed\":\"\",\"sound_quality\":\"Excellent\",\"recording_type\":\"Analogue\",\"storage_capacity\":\"Tape\",\"physical_condition\":\"\",\"track_configuration\":\"\",\"material_designation\":\"Reel to Reel\",\"physical_composition\":\"Magnetic Tape\",\"accompanying_material\":\"\",\"other_physical_description\":\"\"}]"],"material_designations":["Reel to Reel"],"physical_compositions":["Magnetic Tape"],"recording_type":["Analogue"],"AV_type":["Audio"],"playback_mode":["Mono"],"Dates":["[{\"date\":\"1967 3 3\",\"type\":\"Performance Date\",\"notes\":\"Date specified in \\\"Georgantics\\\" by Bob Simco\",\"source\":\"Supplemental Material\"}]"],"Location":["[{\"url\":\"https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/22080570\",\"venue\":\"Hall Building Basement Theatre\",\"notes\":\"Location specified in printed announcement \\\"Georgantics\\\" by Bob Simco (Supplemental material)\",\"address\":\"1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada\",\"latitude\":\"45.4972758\",\"longitude\":\"-73.57893043\"}]"],"Address":["1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada"],"Venue":["Hall Building Basement Theatre"],"City":["Montreal, Quebec"],"content_notes":["Victor Coleman reads from One/eye/love (Coach House Press, 1967)."],"contents":["victor_coleman_i086.11-159.mp3\n\nWynne Francis\n00:00:00\nBy the way I must remember a most important announcement, there is to be no smoking in the theatre. You may smoke at intermission, but please do not smoke during the readings. Our first reader tonight is Mr. Victor Coleman [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q23882910] who comes to us from Toronto [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q172]. Mr. Coleman is the publisher of Island Magazine [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q15754909], and Is Magazine which is spelled 'i' 's' and looks like 'is' but is pronounced 'I’s', and he is also the publisher and editor of Island Press. He is a very active promoter of new Canadian poetry and he himself has published in several little magazines in Canada [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q16] and he has made translations from Erik Satie's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q187192] notes to the music, he has also been published in New Wave Canada, an anthology of new Canadian poets published by Contact Press, and edited by Raymond Souster [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q304129]. He is also affiliated, his press, Island Press, is affiliated with the Coach House Press [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5137585] in Toronto and through this press a book of his poems will be appearing this spring. He is our first reader and our second reader is Mr. George Bowering [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1239280], who has already published three books, the first one by Contact Press called Points On The Grid, the second one, The Silver Wire published by Quarry Press and the third one, A Man in Yellow Boots, by El Corno Emplumado which was done bilingually in Spanish and in English and which contains montages and illustrations by poet and artist Roy Kiyooka [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3445789]. Mr. Bowering is also editor of Imago Magazine, which emanated from Alberta [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1951] and which is devoted to the long poem or the longer poem, he is expecting to publish very shortly, in the spring I believe, a novel called The Mirror on the Floor. Mr. Coleman will read first, and then there will be a short intermission, and then Mr. Bowering will read to you.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:02:49\nI like to make it a habit always at a reading to start off with something that somebody else wrote, simply to show you that my concerns lie elsewhere, then in my own self. This is something from A History of America by an American writer by the name of Bill Hutton and it's— well, I won't explain it to you.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:03:35\nReads unnamed poem by Bill Hutton.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:06:00\nI'll read a few short poems first, and then go into something from a sequence, a longer sequence. This is a poem dedicated to Bill Hutton, the author of that piece I just read, it's called \"Buff Hello, 6\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:06:33\nReads \"Buff Hello, 6\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:08:27\nI'm going to focus on that clock every once in a while, simply because I want to keep track of myself. If I might say, um, it's interesting that I'm reading with George Bowering and my general tenure at this time, uh, which I'm not really that self-conscious about which is interesting to me to be growing a beard at this time and that the last time that I started to grow a beard was the first time that I met George Bowering and it was about two years ago and we were sitting up in my attic which was a room and I said to him, \"How do you like my beard?\" and he says that \"It makes you look like an impotent D.H. Lawrence [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q34970]”. [Audience laughter]. This is a poem called \"The Lady Vanishes\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:09:41\nReads \"The Lady Vanishes\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:11:14\nHere's a kind of poem that I can bug everybody with because it probably won't mean anything to you at all, but simply because it really is my occasion but rather than hide it away, um, I think that the sound of it is enough to carry to you, some measure of the poetry that I got from the occasion that I speak of. It's called \"For Basil Bunting\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:11:48\nReads \"For Basil Bunting\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:12:34\nI don't know whether any of you are familiar with a Japanese-English dictionary called Kenkyusha [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6389422], if not, all I can tell you is that it's a Japanese-English dictionary and that it has a strange quality to be able to predict the future, by chance operations in that it's very fat and you open it and you're like the guy with the funny hat at the track who really shouldn't be there because he can only guess and he just opens the racing form and sticks his finger on the horse and he bets on the horse and he usually loses. Kenkyusha is a little better than that because you're not trying to win anything, you're looking for some kind of instruction and the time I wrote these poems I was rather desperate for some kind of instruction, and uh, it's just a matter of opening the book, pointing and getting the epigraph for each poem from the Japanese-English dictionary. I'll just read a couple. \"Day Seven\", oh there are given days, that are sort of daily devotions.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:14:09\nReads \"Day Seven\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:14:33\nReads \"Day Eight\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:15:19\nReads \"Day Ten\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:16:18\nMany of these relate to certain experiences with LSD also.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:16:29\nReads \"Day Thirteen\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:16:49\nThe reason that the definitions, the English definitions in this section are so interesting and not like the ones we are accustomed to is because the characters that they represent go through their own changes and it's almost an ideogrammatic dictionary rather than a dictionary of definitions.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:17:13\nResumes reading “Day Thirteen”.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:20:17\nI need to get one of those spider clocks, can't read in this light.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:20:39\nReads \"Day Twenty-One\" .\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:22:36\nReads \"Day Twenty-Two\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:24:56\nReads \"Day Twenty-Four\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:28:22\nThese next poems are the poems that are closest to me now. It's another long sequence called \"Separations\" and I don't think I need to give you any background on it. I'll not read the whole thing because it's quite long.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:28:56\nReads \"Separations” [parts 4-8, 10-12, and 14].\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:37:00\nThank you.\n \nEND\n00:37:17\n"],"Note":["[{\"note\":\"George Bowering is repeatedly mentioned on the tape and in printed announcements, but no supporting audio has been found. \",\"type\":\"General\"},{\"note\":\"Year-specific Information:\\n\\nOne/eye/love was published in 1967, and Coleman was working at Coach House Press.\\n\",\"type\":\"General\"},{\"note\":\"Local connections:\\n\\nVictor Coleman was very involved in the promotion of small presses and Canadian writers, specifically through his own presses and Coach House Press.

In 1954 he served in the Royal Canadian Air Force until 1957, when he pursued a Bachelor’s degree in 1960 and a Master’s degree in 1963 from the University of British Columbia. With fellow poets Frank Davey, David Dawson, James Reid, Fred Wah and critic Warren Tallman, he founded Tish in 1961, a poetry newsletter which had monumental reverberations across Canada. This magazine, influenced by styles of the Black Mountain Poets and of the East Coast poetry of Louis Dudek, Raymond Souster and Irving Layton, brought a “new wave” of poetry to Canada. Bowering’s first collection of poetry began with Sticks and Stones (Tishbooks, 1962) with a preface written by Robert Creeley, and was followed by Points on the grid (Contact Press, 1964) and Man in Yellow Boots (El Corno Emplumado, 1965). Bowering also founded the magazine Imago (1964-1974), which featured critical essays and poetry, and he also contributed to Open Letter as an editor. Bowering then moved eastwards, teaching at the University of Calgary from 1963-1966, enrolled in the Ph.D. program at the University of Western Ontario. A year later, Bowering accepted a position as the writer-in-residence in 1967 at Sir George Williams University (now Concordia University) in Montreal, becoming a lecturer in 1967-1971. Bowering joined the Sir George Williams University Poetry Reading Series Committee in the fall of 1967, which was being run by Roy Kiyooka, Stanton Hoffman and Howard Fink. In 1972 he left Montreal and began a long career teaching at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia. He has published over fifty books of poetry, prose, short stories, essays, reviews, plays as well as pieces that combine and defy genres. A selection of his publications are as follows: Genève (Coach House Press, 1971), Autobiology (New Star Books, 1972), Curious (Coach House Press, 1973), In the Flesh (McClelland & Stewart, 1974), Allophanes (Coach House Press, 1976), Burning Water (Beaufort Books, 1980), Caprice (Penguin Books, 1988),  Harry’s Fragments (Coach House Press, 1990), Rewriting my Grandfather (Nomados, 2005), Baseball Love (Talonbooks, 2006) and Shall I compare: July 2006 (George Bowering, 2008). Bowering published his interview with Black Mountain poet Robert Duncan: An Interview (Coach House Press, 1971), a book-length study on Canadian poet Al Purdy: Al Purdy (Copp Clark, 1970), along with editing several anthologies such as Vibrations: Poems from Youth (Cage, 1970), Fiction of Contemporary Canada (Coach House Press, 1980) and Likely Stories: A Postmodern Sampler (Coach House Press, 1992). Bowering has won two Governor General's Awards for poetry,  for Rocky Mountain Foot (McClelland & Stewart, 1968) and The Gangs Kosmos (House of Anansi, 1969), and one for fiction in 1980 for Burning Water (Beaufort Books, 1980). George Bowering continues teaching, inspiring and writing at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia.\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\",\"Performer\"]}]"],"contributors":["[{\"url\":\"\",\"name\":\"\",\"dates\":\"\",\"notes\":\"\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[]}]"],"Performance_Date":[1974],"material_description":["[{\"side\":\"\",\"image\":\"Uploads/1301/I0006_11_0034_front-300x300.jpg\",\"other\":\"\",\"extent\":\"1/4 inch\",\"AV_types\":\"Audio\",\"tape_brand\":\"Scotch\",\"generations\":\"Master\",\"Conservation\":\"\",\"equalization\":\"\",\"playback_mode\":\"Mono\",\"playing_speed\":\"\",\"sound_quality\":\"Good\",\"recording_type\":\"Analogue\",\"storage_capacity\":\"\",\"physical_condition\":\"\",\"track_configuration\":\"\",\"material_designation\":\"Reel to Reel\",\"physical_composition\":\"Magnetic Tape\",\"accompanying_material\":\"\",\"other_physical_description\":\"\"}]"],"material_designations":["Reel to Reel"],"physical_compositions":["Magnetic Tape"],"recording_type":["Analogue"],"AV_type":["Audio"],"playback_mode":["Mono"],"Dates":["[{\"date\":\"1974 1 25\",\"type\":\"Performance Date\",\"notes\":\"Date written on the front of the tape's box\",\"source\":\"Accompanying Material\"}]"],"Location":["[{\"url\":\"https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/22080570\",\"venue\":\"Hall Building Room H-435\",\"notes\":\"Location specified in written announcement \\\"Bowering Back At SGWU\\\"\",\"address\":\"1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada\",\"latitude\":\"45.4972758\",\"longitude\":\"-73.57893043\"}]"],"Address":["1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada"],"Venue":["Hall Building Room H-435"],"City":["Montreal, Quebec"],"content_notes":["George Bowering reads from Autobiology (New Star Books, 1972) and Curious (Coach House Press, 1973), as well as a few poems from unknown sources."],"contents":["george_bowering_i006-11-034.mp3 \n\nIntroducer\n00:00:00\nAmbient Sound.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:01:54\nOh I just did a review of Al Purdy's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4704621] new book of poems so maybe I'll just start off reading that. [Audience laughter]. I said I liked it Al. [Audience laughter]. I'm related to practically everybody here. I'll turn this off now. [Audience laughter].\n \nIntroducer\n00:04:12\n...I think that George Bowering  [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1239280] has read or done— or not done, or not written. On the back of [that book (?)], it says that he has two new books, one called Curious from Coach House Press [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5137585], and another In the Flesh, coming out with McClelland and Stewart [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6800322]. The one thing I can add to that is— has to do with baseball [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5369], about which I know much less than George. You still have your team?\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:04:51\nYes.\n \nIntroducer\n00:04:54\nOkay, it's occurred to me that George understands one thing that is rather important to understand that is that the difference between stepping up to the plate and hitting the ball out of the park, and going [unintelligible], on the one hand, and on the other, stepping up to the plate and being there when the bat does what it's supposed to do and the ball takes itself out of the park. And this applies to baseball, and it also applies to poems. And that's what George understands.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:05:48\nFor those that live in California [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q99], that's what Suzuki Roshi [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q572599] calls Zen Baseball. I'm really excited to be back here, this is really a burn for me, because, can you hear me if I talk at this level? I'm hearing an echo, but I— can you hear me? [Audience laughter]. I'm reading for the next three weeks back and forth but this is the first one so I haven't got stale with any of this stuff yet in the east. And I'm going to come back in a few minutes to Autobiology, because I've never read it in the east although I started writing it in Montreal [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q340] and finished it in Vancouver [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q24639], but before I do I'm going to read a piece that is sort of representative of what I've been doing lately in Vancouver, called \"Desert Elm\", the desert being the Okanagan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1812222] in this instance and the elm being the kind of tree that people planted there that wasn't there before and grew— they tried a lot of other ones and they didn't work. And it's a poem about my father and it deals with— it was begun with his heart attack he had in August and what happened after that, to me.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:07:22\nReads \"Desert Elm\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:20:04\nThat's the longest one I'll read I think. I was going to go into Autobiology, but I'm just going to jump right now into one section of Curious, I'm going to read the Jack Spicer [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3805658] part for Artie [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4800979], and then I'll [unintelligible] Curious is a-—that's one of the books that's coming out this week, it's about, it's a book about poets, sort of, and this one's about Jack Spicer, who, Artie digs.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:20:43\nReads \"Jack Spicer\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:22:10\nHe was supposed to be moving— that was in the summer of '65, he was up in Vancouver and just decided to move up there so he wouldn't die, and because he would die if he stayed in San Francisco [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q62], and then he said, well just before that I'll go down to the San Francisco Poetry Festival, and when that's over in three weeks I'll come up to Vancouver, and he died during the second week. Okay, this is— Autobiology is a book  that came out, two years ago this month, actually, 72, yeah. And I started writing it in Westmount [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q139497] as they say and finished it in Kitsilano [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4179275]. I started writing it in an expensive flat in Westmount, and finished it in a commune on the edge of the water in Vancouver and it's a story about, as it suggests, it's a story, it's a book, it's poetry, it's prose, it's something about things that have changed me in terms of my head but first in terms of chemicals and physiologically, changed my body literally and so on. So I'll just, I'll read portions of it. I toyed with the idea of reading the whole book, it's the sort of thing we do in Vancouver, like we sit down and read the whole book, and this was published the same day as Stan Persky's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2330087] The Day, a book called The Day, and it's the same length, about a hundred pages, and he read The Day and we took a break, and I read Autobiology and then we took a break of a couple of hours and he read The Day again. But that's sort of— that happens a little— it's a little easier to take when everybody is kind of a volunteer anyway, when everybody in the audience has known all the time that this was being written and that it was going to be read, the whole book. So I'll just read parts of it so you get a taste of it. Each section is about one and a quarter foolscap pages when it's handwritten, long, approximately so it turns out to be about two of these pages. \"Chapter One\"— there's forty-eight chapters. \"Chapter One: The Raspberries\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:24:41 \nReads \"Chapter One: The Raspberries\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:26:06 \nDid that ever happen to--I'm sure these kinds of things must have happened to--the way I was telling [unintelligible] this afternoon that the way this book is written was I knew the general frame was things that changed me that way, from things put in my body, generally, or pieces of my body taken off, or whatever. Or pieces of my body going out into someone else's body or whatever. And I'd go home in my house in Westmount, from here, and I'd say 'I got it! Today I'm going to do the broken tool part' and I'd run home and I'd start controlling the thing and I'd throw it away, so all the pieces that are in here are the pieces that are not thrown away, the ones where I didn't know what I was going to write when I started writing. I have the sense that I tried to describe that afternoon as being simply equal to what was coming in the story. This is \"Chapter 2\", I'll read \"Chapter 1\" and 2 and 3 and 4 and then I'll skip. This is \"The Teeter Totter\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:27:05\nReads \"Chapter 2: The Teeter Totter\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:28:22\nReads \"Chapter 3: The Pollywogs\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:29:31\n\"The Flying Dream\". This is the origin of why I decided to write poetry I think, or at least I've always made that connection. \"The Flying Dream\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:29:40\nReads \"Chapter 4: The Flying Dream\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:30:54\nIt's the basis of that West Coast [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1974] elitism, Al. I— after I'd done this whole book I found out there's two chapters called \"The Breaks\", I'd totally forgotten that this chapter had written me this time. So this is the first chapter on “The Breaks”.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:31:15\nReads \"Chapter 8: The Breaks\" from Autobiology [audience laughter throughout].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:32:34\nGee, there's one I've never read before, I mean, out loud [audience laughter]. I'm not going to anyway, heck with it. Oh, here's one that every once in a while there's, it comes to, the thing comes to writing itself or talking about the writing of itself, so here's one called \"Composition\", for those that are worried about the problem it'll be totally clear. I think. It defines composition. \"Composition\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:33:02\nReads \"Chapter 14: Composition\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:34:32\nHere's the other one called \"The Breaks\".\n \nGeorge Bowering \n00:34:35.49\nReads \"Chapter 20: The Breaks\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:35:53\nReads [“Chapter 21: Come’ from Autobiology].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:37:13\nThis is one that, this is a favourite amongst the [serifs (?)] in Vancouver. The— I live in a community now as different from the community I lived in a couple of years ago of all https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], Esalen [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], encounters all the time and they're always talking about shrinkage and they're always telling me why don't you take shrinkage, and I say 'I don't feel like I need shrinkage' and they said 'that proves you need shrinkage'. Can't get out of it, you know, that's your problem— you don't think you need... So this one is sort of a reply to that, it's called \"The Childhood\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:37:56\nReads \"Chapter 26: The Childhood\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:39:05\nThis one's about the literary world, it's called \"St. Louis\", where, St. Louis is where William Burroughs [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q38022] and an earlier poet came from. T.S. Sandburn [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q37767], I think his name was. [audience laughter.]\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:39:21\nReads \"Chapter 27: St. Louis\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:40:49\nThen there's a whole series of pieces on towns that I lived in which I'll skip over. Skip that one, skip that one, get to these ones at the end. Here's one called \"The Flesh\", which I guess was involved with at the time, writing a book of poems about the flesh.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:41:23\nReads \"Chapter 43: The Flesh\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:42:43\nI think I'll read the last couple in this one, and then see what time it is. \"The Operations\" everybody is my chance, right? Every vessel, living in a house with my mother talking about operations the last couple of weeks and she couldn't really do it. So I get my chance now, ‘cause I don't really get the chance— that's my mother on the cover of the book by the way, that's my mother and that's me. There she is.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:43:14\nReads \"Chapter 45: The Operations\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:44:53\nAnd the last two, this is \"The Scars\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:44:56\nReads \"Chapter 47: The Scars\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:46:24\nAnd the last one is called naturally, \"The Body\", Chapter 48.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:46:32\nReads \"Chapter 48: The Body\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:47:48\nThat was Autobiology, it's actually, can you imagine, a tetralogy. And the first volume was called Geneve and it was based on a found thing with the tarot pack [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q583269] and with the Geneva version of the French pack, Marseilles pack. The second one was Autobiology and the third one was Curious and the fourth one is— Dwight Gardiner wrote it, in a book called the Book of the Occasional. I was going to write it but he wrote it, so I didn't have to. It's just absolutely beautiful and if you see a Book of the Occasional, you'll see what I mean. It's just a gorgeous, gorgeous book. Oh, gee, I'd love to read— how long can I have now?\n \nUnknown\n00:48:45\n[Cut or edit made in tape].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:48:46\n...Because I just suddenly remembered I'd love to read a piece I have called The Big Leagues. But then I also have a book called At War with the U.S. that I— was the first book of poems I've written in years, but maybe I'll just read The Big Leagues, that will probably take— and then maybe I'll read one or two pieces from Curious. This is a book—a thing called The Big Leagues and it's in a few- in five sections and maybe I'll get tired before I get to the fifth one, but I'll just see how— the first one is called \"The Detroit Tigers\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q650855].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:49:21\nReads \"The Detroit Tigers\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:51:57\nThat was written in South Slocan, B.C. [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q18379776] I think this is my favourite one, it's called \"The Dallas Cowboys\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q204862].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:52:09\nReads \"The Dallas Cowboys\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:54:57\nThe next one's called \"The San Diego Padres\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q721134] but I'm going to skip that one because it's about getting dope [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60168] into— what happens is that Chance is coming back, he's now wearing the uniform that Slim Chance had before he died, a U.S. Army uniform that says \"Chance\" on it and \"U.S. Army\" and they're sneaking some dope into San Diego and it has to do with some Padres whose clothes are taken off so they can use them to hide the dope and everything. The next one's called \"The Buffalo Sabres\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q131206].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:55:32\nBegins reading \"The Buffalo Sabres\". \n\nGeorge Bowering\n00:55:37\nOh, by the way what happens is that I took four quotations from poetry, and three of them are taken from the normal Ohio academic American Poetry Anthology and one of them is taken from Robert Creeley [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q918620] at the end, and you can tell. I can't even remember what poets I took from, like all those guys sorta have the same thing, you know, Donald Hall [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q976924] Anthology Poets if you know what I mean.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:56:05\nResumes reading \"The Buffalo Sabres\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:59:06\nAnd this one is for a lot of friends of mine, it's called \"The Minnesota Twins\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q604879] and he's going on, he's leaving Buffalo [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q40435] and going to— has anyone here been to— has anyone here been to Bemidji, Minnesota [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q730430]? You know what they got there right? That great big, blue Ox and the great big Paul Bunyan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7149597] carved about 30 feet high or something like that. And other than that, it's a beautiful town, you know, it has the— it looks like the underground of another town turn upside-down, so the bottom is up above the ground, right? \"The Minnesota Twins\".\n \nAnnotation\n00:59:39\nReads \"The Minnesota Twins\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:02:26\nI think I'll read like for ten minutes and that'll be for a total of an hour, five minutes or something like that. I'll just, I'll pick, this is Curious, which is a— that other book's coming out, it's called In the Flesh and it's maybe the last book of occasional, magazine book verse poetry I ever do. It deals with the experience of being in your 30s and finding out that the world isn't round after all and how sad you can be and how strong emotions can be. It has an introduction called \"I Never Felt Such Love\". But it's mainly lyric poetry, and I just, I've read so much of that that it's got to be too easy to read and write and everything. So I'll read a few of these. The poets who are mentioned in Curious, it happens that there are a lot of my friends who aren't in the book. Because, again, I wrote it that way, if you know, if that person did not come up, excuse me, from the other side of the page or however that feeling is to be described, if the voice wasn't there or something, for instance I really wanted to do a Roy Kiyooka [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3445789] poem, and you know, I just couldn't and it didn't come and I had wanted to but if I had tried that it just would have been screwed up. Some of these are American, some are Canadians, a couple are English and maybe one or two other things. And the first one is, naturally, Charles Olson [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q922978]. Olson, as you probably know, was about 6 ft 10 and weighed about 300 pounds. And I first met him— I was standing at the bottom of a flight of stairs and he was coming down them. So I said 'hello' to the knees of his sear-sucker suit.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:04:19\nReads \"Charles Olson\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:05:57\nI'll get some Canadians in here. Margaret Atwood [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q183492], she's the first Canadian to appear in here.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:06:16\nReads \"Margaret Atwood\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:07:36\nThere are some poets in here that you won't know that are more specifically Vancouver-oriented poets perhaps that aren't as well known out here so I'll skip those. This is \"bp Nichol\". Everybody knows bpNichol [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4953105], or everybody is bpNichol.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:07:57\nReads \"bp Nichol\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:09:40\n\"Stephen Spender\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q448764]. I was going to skip this one, but it has a few moments in it.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:09:53\nReads \"Stephen Spender\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:11:18\nThat's, boy, that's— like you're out on the West Coast where you've never seen a poet before in your life and the first one they bring you is this guy you've been reading in books and he's a white-haired— it's unbelievable. You know, John Newlove's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6250356]? John Newlove, for those who know John Newlove.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:11:36\nReads \"John Newlove\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:13:08\nThat last part is from a title of one of his books. David McFadden [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5237344] is, this is the David McFadden piece and maybe I'll read it and a couple more. It's not my favourite but it's one that I like reading. David McFadden— well, it tells you what he's like, but David McFadden is a— he scared the hell out of Allen Ginsberg [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6711] because he writes really funny poems, like he literally has things, like he walks out into the backyard and sees the Archangel Gabriel [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q81989] or a space man and just talks to it and talks about it in the story of the poem a paragraph after he's talked about going out and buying some cigarettes or something like that and Ginsberg thought, wow, what a weird spaced out guy, so Victor Coleman [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q23882910] took him down to Hamilton [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q133116] to see David, David— he's got, as he said in the note of one of his books, \"I was born in 1940 and I comb my hair straight back\", and in his house, he's got an electric pendulum clock and you know that sort of thing. And Ginsberg took one look and said [inaudible ‘scared’ sound], and ran away. Just couldn't believe it, you know, it's unbelievable. So, David McFadden.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:14:30\nReads \"David McFadden\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:24\nThere wasn't a comma in there, that was the Indian food coming back. Now let's see…\n\nAudience Member 1\n01:16:31\nAddresses George Bowering [unintelligible; requests poem].\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:33\nNo, he didn't get in there either, and I'm very sad about that, just people that got in that I wish didn't get in and there's people that didn't get in that I wish did get in. \n\nAudience Member 2\n01:16:44\n[Unintelligible]...Raymond Souster [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q304129].\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:46\nYeah, I think I might have skipped over Raymond Souster, the Raymond Souster one is, as you might imagine the shortest one in the book.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:58\nReads \"Raymond Souster\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:17:59\nI got a Purdy one too, but Al weighs 210 pounds. No, I've always made it a policy not to read the ones of somebody that's there. I don't know if there are any other ones that I'm going to read.\n\nAudience Member 3\n01:18:25\nAddresses George Bowering [unintelligible; requests poem].\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:18:26\nYeah, I don't know where the hell it is. I like the Lionel Kearns [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6555690] one actually...Oh I don't know what's happened to the Lionel Kearns one, it's one of my very favourites too. I think maybe, I'll see if I can find the Lionel one in a second then I'll read it and I'll finish off with the bill bissett [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4911496] one. If I just had the book with me it'd be a hell of a lot easier. I don't think I'm going to find the Kearns one. I can't find the Kearns one, it's all about how he can't find anything. This is the bissett one and then I'll finish off with that.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:19:30\nReads bill bissett\" from Curious.\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:21:16\nThank you.\n\nAudience\n01:21:17\nApplause. \n\nEND\n01:21:29\n"],"Note":["[{\"note\":\"Year-specific Information:\\n\\nIn 1974, George Bowering had published At War with the U.S. (Talonbooks, 1974), Flycatcher & Other Stories (Oberon, 1974), In the Flesh (McClelland & Stewart, 1974) and the last issue of Imago: 20 (Talonbooks, 1974) and was teaching at Simon Fraser University.\",\"type\":\"General\"},{\"note\":\"Local connections:\\n\\nGeorge Bowering was very influential in promoting and enriching the Vancouver poetry scene in the early 1960s, through his magazines Tish and Imago as well as the hundreds of connections he made with other poets.

[Audience laughter]. I said I liked it Al. [Audience laughter]. I'm related to practically everybody here. I'll turn this off now. [Audience laughter].\\n \\nIntroducer\\n00:04:12\\n...I think that George Bowering  [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1239280] has read or done— or not done, or not written. On the back of [that book (?)], it says that he has two new books, one called Curious from Coach House Press [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5137585], and another In the Flesh, coming out with McClelland and Stewart [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6800322]. The one thing I can add to that is— has to do with baseball [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5369], about which I know much less than George. You still have your team?\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:04:51\\nYes.\\n \\nIntroducer\\n00:04:54\\nOkay, it's occurred to me that George understands one thing that is rather important to understand that is that the difference between stepping up to the plate and hitting the ball out of the park, and going [unintelligible], on the one hand, and on the other, stepping up to the plate and being there when the bat does what it's supposed to do and the ball takes itself out of the park. And this applies to baseball, and it also applies to poems. And that's what George understands.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:05:48\\nFor those that live in California [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q99], that's what Suzuki Roshi [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q572599] calls Zen Baseball. I'm really excited to be back here, this is really a burn for me, because, can you hear me if I talk at this level? I'm hearing an echo, but I— can you hear me? [Audience laughter]. I'm reading for the next three weeks back and forth but this is the first one so I haven't got stale with any of this stuff yet in the east. And I'm going to come back in a few minutes to Autobiology, because I've never read it in the east although I started writing it in Montreal [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q340] and finished it in Vancouver [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q24639], but before I do I'm going to read a piece that is sort of representative of what I've been doing lately in Vancouver, called \\\"Desert Elm\\\", the desert being the Okanagan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1812222] in this instance and the elm being the kind of tree that people planted there that wasn't there before and grew— they tried a lot of other ones and they didn't work. And it's a poem about my father and it deals with— it was begun with his heart attack he had in August and what happened after that, to me.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:07:22\\nReads \\\"Desert Elm\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:20:04\\nThat's the longest one I'll read I think. I was going to go into Autobiology, but I'm just going to jump right now into one section of Curious, I'm going to read the Jack Spicer [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3805658] part for Artie [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4800979], and then I'll [unintelligible] Curious is a-—that's one of the books that's coming out this week, it's about, it's a book about poets, sort of, and this one's about Jack Spicer, who, Artie digs.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:20:43\\nReads \\\"Jack Spicer\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:22:10\\nHe was supposed to be moving— that was in the summer of '65, he was up in Vancouver and just decided to move up there so he wouldn't die, and because he would die if he stayed in San Francisco [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q62], and then he said, well just before that I'll go down to the San Francisco Poetry Festival, and when that's over in three weeks I'll come up to Vancouver, and he died during the second week. Okay, this is— Autobiology is a book  that came out, two years ago this month, actually, 72, yeah. And I started writing it in Westmount [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q139497] as they say and finished it in Kitsilano [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4179275]. I started writing it in an expensive flat in Westmount, and finished it in a commune on the edge of the water in Vancouver and it's a story about, as it suggests, it's a story, it's a book, it's poetry, it's prose, it's something about things that have changed me in terms of my head but first in terms of chemicals and physiologically, changed my body literally and so on. So I'll just, I'll read portions of it. I toyed with the idea of reading the whole book, it's the sort of thing we do in Vancouver, like we sit down and read the whole book, and this was published the same day as Stan Persky's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2330087] The Day, a book called The Day, and it's the same length, about a hundred pages, and he read The Day and we took a break, and I read Autobiology and then we took a break of a couple of hours and he read The Day again. But that's sort of— that happens a little— it's a little easier to take when everybody is kind of a volunteer anyway, when everybody in the audience has known all the time that this was being written and that it was going to be read, the whole book. So I'll just read parts of it so you get a taste of it. Each section is about one and a quarter foolscap pages when it's handwritten, long, approximately so it turns out to be about two of these pages. \\\"Chapter One\\\"— there's forty-eight chapters. \\\"Chapter One: The Raspberries\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:24:41 \\nReads \\\"Chapter One: The Raspberries\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:26:06 \\nDid that ever happen to--I'm sure these kinds of things must have happened to--the way I was telling [unintelligible] this afternoon that the way this book is written was I knew the general frame was things that changed me that way, from things put in my body, generally, or pieces of my body taken off, or whatever. Or pieces of my body going out into someone else's body or whatever. And I'd go home in my house in Westmount, from here, and I'd say 'I got it! Today I'm going to do the broken tool part' and I'd run home and I'd start controlling the thing and I'd throw it away, so all the pieces that are in here are the pieces that are not thrown away, the ones where I didn't know what I was going to write when I started writing. I have the sense that I tried to describe that afternoon as being simply equal to what was coming in the story. This is \\\"Chapter 2\\\", I'll read \\\"Chapter 1\\\" and 2 and 3 and 4 and then I'll skip. This is \\\"The Teeter Totter\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:27:05\\nReads \\\"Chapter 2: The Teeter Totter\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:28:22\\nReads \\\"Chapter 3: The Pollywogs\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:29:31\\n\\\"The Flying Dream\\\". This is the origin of why I decided to write poetry I think, or at least I've always made that connection. \\\"The Flying Dream\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:29:40\\nReads \\\"Chapter 4: The Flying Dream\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:30:54\\nIt's the basis of that West Coast [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1974] elitism, Al. I— after I'd done this whole book I found out there's two chapters called \\\"The Breaks\\\", I'd totally forgotten that this chapter had written me this time. So this is the first chapter on “The Breaks”.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:31:15\\nReads \\\"Chapter 8: The Breaks\\\" from Autobiology [audience laughter throughout].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:32:34\\nGee, there's one I've never read before, I mean, out loud [audience laughter]. I'm not going to anyway, heck with it. Oh, here's one that every once in a while there's, it comes to, the thing comes to writing itself or talking about the writing of itself, so here's one called \\\"Composition\\\", for those that are worried about the problem it'll be totally clear. I think. It defines composition. \\\"Composition\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:33:02\\nReads \\\"Chapter 14: Composition\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:34:32\\nHere's the other one called \\\"The Breaks\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering \\n00:34:35.49\\nReads \\\"Chapter 20: The Breaks\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:35:53\\nReads [“Chapter 21: Come’ from Autobiology].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:37:13\\nThis is one that, this is a favourite amongst the [serifs (?)] in Vancouver. The— I live in a community now as different from the community I lived in a couple of years ago of all https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], Esalen [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], encounters all the time and they're always talking about shrinkage and they're always telling me why don't you take shrinkage, and I say 'I don't feel like I need shrinkage' and they said 'that proves you need shrinkage'. Can't get out of it, you know, that's your problem— you don't think you need... So this one is sort of a reply to that, it's called \\\"The Childhood\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:37:56\\nReads \\\"Chapter 26: The Childhood\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:39:05\\nThis one's about the literary world, it's called \\\"St. Louis\\\", where, St. Louis is where William Burroughs [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q38022] and an earlier poet came from. T.S. Sandburn [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q37767], I think his name was. [audience laughter.]\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:39:21\\nReads \\\"Chapter 27: St. Louis\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:40:49\\nThen there's a whole series of pieces on towns that I lived in which I'll skip over. Skip that one, skip that one, get to these ones at the end. Here's one called \\\"The Flesh\\\", which I guess was involved with at the time, writing a book of poems about the flesh.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:41:23\\nReads \\\"Chapter 43: The Flesh\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:42:43\\nI think I'll read the last couple in this one, and then see what time it is. \\\"The Operations\\\" everybody is my chance, right? Every vessel, living in a house with my mother talking about operations the last couple of weeks and she couldn't really do it. So I get my chance now, ‘cause I don't really get the chance— that's my mother on the cover of the book by the way, that's my mother and that's me. There she is.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:43:14\\nReads \\\"Chapter 45: The Operations\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:44:53\\nAnd the last two, this is \\\"The Scars\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:44:56\\nReads \\\"Chapter 47: The Scars\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:46:24\\nAnd the last one is called naturally, \\\"The Body\\\", Chapter 48.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:46:32\\nReads \\\"Chapter 48: The Body\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:47:48\\nThat was Autobiology, it's actually, can you imagine, a tetralogy. And the first volume was called Geneve and it was based on a found thing with the tarot pack [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q583269] and with the Geneva version of the French pack, Marseilles pack. The second one was Autobiology and the third one was Curious and the fourth one is— Dwight Gardiner wrote it, in a book called the Book of the Occasional. I was going to write it but he wrote it, so I didn't have to. It's just absolutely beautiful and if you see a Book of the Occasional, you'll see what I mean. It's just a gorgeous, gorgeous book. Oh, gee, I'd love to read— how long can I have now?\\n \\nUnknown\\n00:48:45\\n[Cut or edit made in tape].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:48:46\\n...Because I just suddenly remembered I'd love to read a piece I have called The Big Leagues. But then I also have a book called At War with the U.S. that I— was the first book of poems I've written in years, but maybe I'll just read The Big Leagues, that will probably take— and then maybe I'll read one or two pieces from Curious. This is a book—a thing called The Big Leagues and it's in a few- in five sections and maybe I'll get tired before I get to the fifth one, but I'll just see how— the first one is called \\\"The Detroit Tigers\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q650855].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:49:21\\nReads \\\"The Detroit Tigers\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:51:57\\nThat was written in South Slocan, B.C. [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q18379776] I think this is my favourite one, it's called \\\"The Dallas Cowboys\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q204862].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:52:09\\nReads \\\"The Dallas Cowboys\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:54:57\\nThe next one's called \\\"The San Diego Padres\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q721134] but I'm going to skip that one because it's about getting dope [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60168] into— what happens is that Chance is coming back, he's now wearing the uniform that Slim Chance had before he died, a U.S. Army uniform that says \\\"Chance\\\" on it and \\\"U.S. Army\\\" and they're sneaking some dope into San Diego and it has to do with some Padres whose clothes are taken off so they can use them to hide the dope and everything. The next one's called \\\"The Buffalo Sabres\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q131206].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:55:32\\nBegins reading \\\"The Buffalo Sabres\\\". \\n\\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:55:37\\nOh, by the way what happens is that I took four quotations from poetry, and three of them are taken from the normal Ohio academic American Poetry Anthology and one of them is taken from Robert Creeley [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q918620] at the end, and you can tell. I can't even remember what poets I took from, like all those guys sorta have the same thing, you know, Donald Hall [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q976924] Anthology Poets if you know what I mean.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:56:05\\nResumes reading \\\"The Buffalo Sabres\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:59:06\\nAnd this one is for a lot of friends of mine, it's called \\\"The Minnesota Twins\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q604879] and he's going on, he's leaving Buffalo [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q40435] and going to— has anyone here been to— has anyone here been to Bemidji, Minnesota [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q730430]? You know what they got there right? That great big, blue Ox and the great big Paul Bunyan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7149597] carved about 30 feet high or something like that. And other than that, it's a beautiful town, you know, it has the— it looks like the underground of another town turn upside-down, so the bottom is up above the ground, right? \\\"The Minnesota Twins\\\".\\n \\nAnnotation\\n00:59:39\\nReads \\\"The Minnesota Twins\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:02:26\\nI think I'll read like for ten minutes and that'll be for a total of an hour, five minutes or something like that. I'll just, I'll pick, this is Curious, which is a— that other book's coming out, it's called In the Flesh and it's maybe the last book of occasional, magazine book verse poetry I ever do. It deals with the experience of being in your 30s and finding out that the world isn't round after all and how sad you can be and how strong emotions can be. It has an introduction called \\\"I Never Felt Such Love\\\". But it's mainly lyric poetry, and I just, I've read so much of that that it's got to be too easy to read and write and everything. So I'll read a few of these. The poets who are mentioned in Curious, it happens that there are a lot of my friends who aren't in the book. Because, again, I wrote it that way, if you know, if that person did not come up, excuse me, from the other side of the page or however that feeling is to be described, if the voice wasn't there or something, for instance I really wanted to do a Roy Kiyooka [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3445789] poem, and you know, I just couldn't and it didn't come and I had wanted to but if I had tried that it just would have been screwed up. Some of these are American, some are Canadians, a couple are English and maybe one or two other things. And the first one is, naturally, Charles Olson [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q922978]. Olson, as you probably know, was about 6 ft 10 and weighed about 300 pounds. And I first met him— I was standing at the bottom of a flight of stairs and he was coming down them. So I said 'hello' to the knees of his sear-sucker suit.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:04:19\\nReads \\\"Charles Olson\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:05:57\\nI'll get some Canadians in here. Margaret Atwood [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q183492], she's the first Canadian to appear in here.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:06:16\\nReads \\\"Margaret Atwood\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:07:36\\nThere are some poets in here that you won't know that are more specifically Vancouver-oriented poets perhaps that aren't as well known out here so I'll skip those. This is \\\"bp Nichol\\\". Everybody knows bpNichol [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4953105], or everybody is bpNichol.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:07:57\\nReads \\\"bp Nichol\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:09:40\\n\\\"Stephen Spender\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q448764]. I was going to skip this one, but it has a few moments in it.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:09:53\\nReads \\\"Stephen Spender\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:11:18\\nThat's, boy, that's— like you're out on the West Coast where you've never seen a poet before in your life and the first one they bring you is this guy you've been reading in books and he's a white-haired— it's unbelievable. You know, John Newlove's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6250356]? John Newlove, for those who know John Newlove.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:11:36\\nReads \\\"John Newlove\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:13:08\\nThat last part is from a title of one of his books. David McFadden [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5237344] is, this is the David McFadden piece and maybe I'll read it and a couple more. It's not my favourite but it's one that I like reading. David McFadden— well, it tells you what he's like, but David McFadden is a— he scared the hell out of Allen Ginsberg [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6711] because he writes really funny poems, like he literally has things, like he walks out into the backyard and sees the Archangel Gabriel [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q81989] or a space man and just talks to it and talks about it in the story of the poem a paragraph after he's talked about going out and buying some cigarettes or something like that and Ginsberg thought, wow, what a weird spaced out guy, so Victor Coleman [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q23882910] took him down to Hamilton [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q133116] to see David, David— he's got, as he said in the note of one of his books, \\\"I was born in 1940 and I comb my hair straight back\\\", and in his house, he's got an electric pendulum clock and you know that sort of thing. And Ginsberg took one look and said [inaudible ‘scared’ sound], and ran away. Just couldn't believe it, you know, it's unbelievable. So, David McFadden.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:14:30\\nReads \\\"David McFadden\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:16:24\\nThere wasn't a comma in there, that was the Indian food coming back.

No, I've always made it a policy not to read the ones of somebody that's there. I don't know if there are any other ones that I'm going to read.\\n\\nAudience Member 3\\n01:18:25\\nAddresses George Bowering [unintelligible; requests poem].\\n\\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:18:26\\nYeah, I don't know where the hell it is. I like the Lionel Kearns [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6555690] one actually...Oh I don't know what's happened to the Lionel Kearns one, it's one of my very favourites too. I think maybe, I'll see if I can find the Lionel one in a second then I'll read it and I'll finish off with the bill bissett [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4911496] one. If I just had the book with me it'd be a hell of a lot easier. I don't think I'm going to find the Kearns one. I can't find the Kearns one, it's all about how he can't find anything. This is the bissett one and then I'll finish off with that.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:19:30\\nReads bill bissett\\\" from Curious.\\n\\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:21:16\\nThank you.\\n\\nAudience\\n01:21:17\\nApplause. \\n\\nEND\\n01:21:29\\n\",\"notes\":\"George Bowering reads from Autobiology (New Star Books, 1972) and Curious (Coach House Press, 1973), as well as a few poems from unknown sources.\\n\\nList of Poems Read and Time Stamps:\\nPart 1\\n00:00 - Background noise, setting up microphone\\n01:54 - George Bowering introduces reading [INDEX: Al Purdy, review of his book of poems, Al Purdy in the audience]\\n04:12 - Unknown male introduces Bowering [INDEX: Curious published by Coach House Press; In the Flesh; baseball]\\n05:48 - George Bowering introduces “Desert Elm” [INDEX: California, Suzuki Roshi ‘Zen Baseball’; reading tour, Autobiology: written in Montreal, finished in Vancouver; Okanagan region in B.C., elm tree; father’s heart attack]\\n07:22 - Reads “Desert Elm”\\n20:04 - Introduces “Jack Spicer” from Curious [INDEX: Autobiology; reading from Curious, reading for Artie Gold, book about poets]\\n20:43 - Reads “Jack Spicer”\\n22:10 - Explains “Jack Spicer” and introduces “Chapter One: The Raspberries” from Autobiology.

Born in Seattle attended the University of California, Berkeley on the G.I. Bill. There he met Ellen King; they married in 1951. In 1956, the Tallmans accepted teaching jobs in the English department at the University of British Columbia, where they helped Earle Birney and Roy Daniells to organize the creative writing department. In 1963, they hosted a poetry conference attended by Denise Levertov, Charles Olson, Allen Ginsberg, Robert Duncan, Margaret Avison, and Philip Whalen. The Tallman home itself also served as a poetry enclave of sorts. It was there that Jack Spicer gave some of his now legendary lectures.
