To celebrate the incredible career of soon-to-be-retiring poet, novelist, mentor, and professor Richard Lemm, the UPEI English Department is presenting his Last Lecture, entitled “A Wondrous Thing Happened on the Way to Dystopia.”

UPEI English Department Professor Shannon Murray shares: “Richard’s more than three decade career here has gone so far beyond his teaching of creative writing, environmental literature, and Canadian Literature [in the] University classroom: to his own creative works, to his mentoring of generations of new Island writers, and to his support for visiting writers and for the creative life of the Island generally.”

All are invited to attend Richard Lemm’s Last Lecture in the Schurman Square in MacDougall Hall, UPEI, at 7 pm on November 13.
