Jeramy Dodds

The Scream Literary festival culminates in the event that started it all. This is your opportunity to hear the country’s best literary talent together on one stage. Canada’s largest outdoor reading returns with another stellar lineup of poets and fictioneers, including: leading Canadian poet Margaret Christakos, newcomer Jeramy Dodds (whose Crabwise to the Hounds was shortlisted for both the 2009 Griffin Poetry Prize and the Trillium Award for Poetry), noted novelist Andrew Pyper (The Killing Circle), Adam Sol (whose Crowd of Sounds won the 2004 Trillium Award for Poetry), and a surprise visit by Icelandic sensation Eiríkur Örn Norðdahl reading with Paul Dutton (of Four Horsemen fame).

Directions:

On the Bloor/Danforth subway line, get off at the High Park stop. From the main entrance, go east to get to High Park Avenue and go south to the lights at Bloor Street and High Park Avenue. Continue through the lights, keeping on the sidewalk to the left. It's about a 20 minute walk from High Park Subway station (top centre of map) to the site, so be sure to factor the time for that lovely stroll into your schedule.

You can also get to the site from the College 506 streetcar, which enters the park at the junction of Howard Park Avenue and Parkside Drive (centre right of map); or from the Queen 505 streetcar which runs along the south end of the park (bottom centre of map).
