Michael Blouin‘s launching Wore Down Trust (and the Festival’s Spring Edition) on April 27th at the Barley Mow.
Wore Down Trust incorporates poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction, biography, vodka and the blues in an examination of desperation and perseverance. Utilizing a blues format, the narrative strings through the lives—pre and post death, real and imagined—of American country singer Johnny Cash and Canadian poet Alden Nowlan.
Alden Nowlan and Cash and Blouin are a bluesy knock you on your woozy combo.
