Winnipeg launch of dueck’s A Very Special Episode.

nathan dueck thinks really hard about pop culture. In A Very Special Episode he pays serious attention to the pieces of our past that have been lost in the internet era. A child of the ‘80s dueck plays with the past and with our ideas of a poetry canon.

dueck’s middle name is russel, which means his initials spell “nrd.” His folks tell him that nobody used that word when he was born, but dictionaries say otherwise. He is the author of king’s(mère) and he’ll. Born in Winnipeg, he completed his PhD at the University of Calgary and now lives in Cranbrook, BC, where he is a creative writing and English instructor at the College of the Rockies.
