The Diaspora Dialogues, with Anthony De Sa

Maybe you've scavenged through a used book store in search of a favourite author, but at this year's The Word On The Street festival, you'll have the opportunity to be a literary scavenger—literally!

This Sunday, Sept. 26, The Diaspora Dialogues is hosting a literary scavenger hunt from one end of Queen's Park to the other. Stop by for a Sunday afternoon chase of literary clues, lines of poetry, personalized readings and other literary oddities. And of course, there are prizes! Intrigued? Visit the website for details.

In the meantime, Anthony De Sa, author of Barnacle Love (Doubleday, 2008) and one of the writers you'll find at the event, talks to Open Book about his own experience as a literary scavenger and his forthcoming book, Carnival of Desire (Doubleday, 2011).
