About this episode

Nikki Reimer is reading from her book [sic] at the Frontenac House launch of Dektet 2010. 'Gorilla condoms? Goldilocks? bent-over cootchie? Gonzo cocaine? Everything?s 4-sale when language is loosed as it is ici (icy) (sic). These poems are a pile-up of pop culture at ?the intersection of Art and Commerce?, and the city is caught at the stoplight.' ?Jury, Dektet 2010 http://frontenachouse.com/titles/single/sic/ The year 2010 marks the 10th anniversary of Frontenac House and the Quartet poetry series.
