Life and career

Lubrin was born in St. Lucia and studied in Canada, completing a bachelor's degree at York University and a graduate degree in creative writing at the University of Guelph.[2][3]

Her first collection of poems, Voodoo Hypothesis, was published in 2017 by Wolsak & Wynn. Voodoo Hypothesis, in the author's words, intends to subvert the construct of 'blackness' and reject the contemporary and historical systems that paint black people as inferior.[4] The book also addresses the legacy of slavery in Lubrin's native Caribbean.[5] Voodoo Hypothesis was nominated for the Gerald Lampert award, the Pat Lowther award and was a finalist for the Raymond Souster award. In addition Voodoo Hypothesis was named one of 2017's best books in Canadian poetry by CBC Books and one of the ten 'must-read' books of 2017 by the League of Canadian Poets.[6][7] CBC Books also named Lubrin a Black Canadian writer to watch in 2018.[8]

Lubrin's short story Into Timmins is anthologized in The Unpublished City: Vol. I, edited by Dionne Brand, finalist for the 2018 Toronto Book Awards.

In addition to her career as a poet, Lubrin teaches at Humber College and works as an editor with Buckrider Books, an imprint of Canadian independent press Wolsak & Wynn.[2][9] She is also a director of the Pivot Reading Series, a biweekly poetry reading series in Toronto.[10] For 2017–2018, Lubrin was a Writer-in-Residence with Poetry In Voice.[11]
