Poet Conner Bouchard-Roberts reads from A Field Companion for Wandering

July 21 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

A book for being lost on real and/or imagined borders. A Field Companion for Wandering is an Anti-Lonely-Planet manifesto. Working to critique forms of commercial and colonial travel that have taken over our imaginations of the world. It is a sincere text that is meant to be read while traveling. A text that inspires contact with strangers, that changes meaning based on where/when you read it, that never offers answers, and most simply is a companion to the loneliness and fear one encounters when out in the world. Conner Bouchard-Roberts is a writer, publisher, and book designer. He owns a bookshop in Port Townsend—where he is currently serving as the inaugural Poet Laureate.
