The Scrimmage with Coll, Dobry, Gavaldà, Gort, Karagiannis and Vigó

Ladies and gentlemen, it is happening again. Choose your best outfit and get ready to attend the poetical fight of the century. Five pugilists-poets will get on the canvas-stage and a referee-master of ceremonies will ensure that everyone will do the right thing. You will see impossible knocks-words, intense rounds-verses, all in all, a sensational fight-poetical evening. As the old Budd said: “one has a promoter, the other one has a publisher; one has a manager, the other one has a literary agent; one has a trainer, the other one has a copy editor; but when the bell rings, everything becomes incidental: you are out there, naked and alone”.

Hear, hear! We have a knockout line-up: Glòria Coll, Edgardo Dobry, Guillem Gavaldà (Francesc Garriga Poetry Prize 2016), Montse Gort, Nathalie Karagiannis and Joan Vigó. And Lluís Riera as master of ceremonies. Let the bell ring!
