Dionne Brand: Salvage

Dionne Brand | Salvage

“It’s an ongoing interrogation of how we think about narrative. It’s my ongoing interrogation of history.” In this Toronto Public Library event, poet and novelist Dionne Brand speaks about how her new nonfiction book, Salvage: Readings From the Wreck (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2024), wrestles with the ways novels from the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries sustain and reproduce colonialism in a conversation with David Chariandy.
