Note:
On the first side of this tape, different writers talk about revolution and their responsibilities toward it.
Nicole Brossard talks about the importance of going into the roots of the world to get to know what the reality is believing it's considered to be the author's job; she talks a little bit of her writing, the purpose, and the encouragement she gets to write.
The other author talks about the definition of revolution; the idea of capitalization, and the fact
critical artists should reconstruct the notion of what narrative is; how to do thing and how do thing fit into time, the world and us...
The other author states that individuals in communities should get into every level of reality and be active at a reasonable level of what ever interests them.
One of the audience presents varied social revolutions that had happened in Canada and many had come into consideration by Canadian writers like
Women movement
Gay and white people
Children rights
Handicapped architecture
The fact that authors should write from their understandings and the ideas not the feelings and of course their personal ideas about revolution in writing is also discussed.
More writers get to talk on the second side.
