About the author
Laura Broadbent
23 books8 followersLaura Broadbent was raised in Stratford, Ontario and has resided in Montreal since 2005. Her first book of poetry Oh There You Are I Can't See You Is It Raining? (Snare Books, 2012) won the 2012 Robert Kroetsch Award for Innovative Poetry. She was recently appointed the reviews editor at Lemon Hound, and will begin her PhD in 2013.
Oh There You Are I Can’t See You Is It Raining? has been eloquently described as “an experiment in hybrid and versatility of voice, these texts stutter around the slipperiness of language and the transience of desire.” Broadbent’s writing does indeed come across as an experiment bent on breaking down proverbial gender stereotypes and giving new meaning to relationships, love and romantic desire in terms of each being essential, absurd, random, hideous, and blind.
