 t floor \n\nSpeakers \nVivian Blaxell \n\nDescription: \nOn March 26 3:10-
 5 pm EST, join us in-person at Room 100A in the Jackman Humanities Buildi
 ng at 170 St. George Street, or over Zoom for a talk that will be ‘worthy
  of the event.’ Reserve your free ticket here.Vivian Blaxell, author of W
 orthy of the Event: An Essay, is the new queer literary superstar, “a 21
 st Century Proust committed to TMI” (Dodie Bellamy), her book “the most p
 rovoking writing I've read in so long” (Trish Salah).Like its author Vivia
 n Blaxell, Worthy of the Event defies easy categorization. She is or has 
 been a philosopher of the mind and ontologies of being, former street-bas
 ed sex worker in 1960s Australia, scholar of Japanese colonialism, trans
  woman elder, and prolific writer. As a memoir the book takes us through 
 these parts of her life, and into the far reaches of the Earth, space, 
 time, and the mind. Fleshy and philosophical, searching and exalted, ut
 terly distinctive and assured, Worthy of the Event belatedly establishes 
 Vivian Blaxell as one of the major writers of her generation.  Engaging in
  sparkling conversation with luminaries of the transgender intelligentsia\
 , Vivian will be all over the United States and Canada this spring, and w
 e do not exaggerate when we say these are HISTORIC OCCURENCES! You'll prob
 ably be reminiscing about them with nostalgia and fondness on your death b
 ed!HURRY AND RSVP NOW  For this leg of her North American tour, join Vivi
 an in conversation with renowned writer and musician Jia Qing Wilson-Yang 
 at the University of Toronto’s Jackman Humanities Building on March 26th f
 rom 3:10-5 pm EST. If you can’t be in-person, you can also attend over Zo
