Where the Silver River Ends is a lyrical meeting of family drama and magical folktale. The book rounds out a trilogy that began with Quon’s first two unrelated novels, Migration Songs (2009) and Low (2013).

Guest readers include award-winning novelist Stephanie Domet (who also MCs the event) and sensitivity reader Jen Schwartz, both of whom worked on Where the Silver River Ends. Readings will be followed by a Q & A.

Stephanie Domet is a writer, editor, and teacher. Her novels Homing and Fallsy Downsies are published by Invisible Publishing. She is at work on a third. Her middle-grade readers book Amazing Atlantic Canadian Women, co-written with Penelope Jackson, is published by Nimbus. She is the co-executive director and co-founder of the AfterWords Literary Festival. She lives on unceded and unsurrendered Mi’kmaki, where she is forever feeding her sourdough starter and sewing a handmade wardrobe.

Jen Schwartz is a queer and disabled creative writer, and collaborative editor, living in Halifax. While her main goal in life is to be a joy seeker/sharer, she is particularly passionate about community, connection, words, and song—and how those things can change the world when combined. A former staff member at Elephant Journal and Mindful Magazine, you’ll often find Jen correcting grammar and typos in things publicly displayed, or pointing out song lyric references in everyday conversation.
