Wordfest is closing its 2026 Imaginairium Festival with superstar Bonnie Garmus in her only Western Canadian appearance! Her debut Lessons in Chemistry—a tour-de-force of feminist historical fiction—skyrocketed Garmus to global fame and the book into an Emmy-winning Apple TV series. Susin Nielsen (Snap) speaks to Garmus about her much-anticipated follow-up, Peck & Peck. This book-with-ticket special experience will be one for the books—and a certain sell-out—so secure your seats at the magnificent Bella Concert Hall now.
