In this episode, Marty Gervais, aka poet, publisher, and a central figure in Canadian literary life, joins us for a conversation that covers more than 50 years of writing, editing, and building literary community.

From the handmade days of independent presses to today’s tumultuous digital landscape, Marty reflects on what’s changed (and what hasn’t). We also talk about his new book, The Shape of Disappearing Letters, and how losing his eyesight reshaped his relationship to language, memory, and imagination.

It’s thoughtful, funny, and sometimes a little unexpected. Because as Marty reminds us, it’s not the facts people remember…it’s the stories.
