People in shelters, sex trade write poetry book

Clients of PEERS, residents at Rock Bay Landing in Victoria collaborate on poetry book

Poetry written by Victoria’s marginalized communities forms the core of a new book, called Voices from the Edge. The pieces are by first time writers, including patrons of PEERS – a support organization for sex trade workers – or residents of Rock Bay Landing shelter.

The book costs $20, available at the Cool Aid administration office, 102 - 749 Pandora Ave., or the Downtown Victoria Business Association, 20 Centennial Sq.
