In October 2004, Abebooks.com, in association with the Victoria READ Society, announced the launch of "Random Acts of Poetry Week," the first nation-wide public poetry celebration that will see Canadian poets reading poems in their own communities to people on the street. Twenty-seven poets, living in 17 different cities from Newfoundland to British Columbia, will take part. Each poet will travel through their city, randomly reading poems to people in parks, bus stops, schools, cafes, shops, libraries, hair salons and other everyday places. 2, record 1, English, - Random%20Acts%20of%20Poetry%20Week

Pendant cette semaine, les poètes réciteront des poèmes dans les villes et villages canadiens. Ils ne le feront pas en studio ni dans des amphithéâtres, mais plutôt là où ils sentent l'envie de le faire, que ce soit dans un parc public, un véhicule de transport en commun ou un salon de coiffure, ou même dans la rue. En outre, les poètes distribueront des recueils de poésie. La Semaine de la poésie à l'improviste est une initiative de Wendy Morton, une poétesse de Victoria. L'idée lui est venue que la poésie trouverait des adeptes si plus de gens y étaient exposés, peu importe l'endroit. Il faut également signaler l'importante contribution de abebooks.com, le promoteur de cet événement en collaboration avec la Victoria Read Society.
