Avec une plume d'une précision et d'une méticulosité impressionnantes, l'autrice nous convie dans son premier recueil à un parcours en six parties au fil duquel se déploie une voix qui, peu à peu, arrive à s'exprimer avec force et sans maladresses. Le hoquet en pulpes évoque tant l'importance de prendre soin de soi que celle de confronter autrui, pour apprendre à mieux bâtir sa maison.

After twelve years trapped in the throat of a serpent, a girl escapes. She returns to her village naked with a monstrous snakeskin trailing behind her. One decision at a time, she reclaims her life. Each character she encounters by land and sea-brute, healer, orphan, mystic, lover-reflects an unhealed aspect of herself and plots her recovery through symbolic milestones. Serpent's Wake is intended for adults and young adults exploring how, once fractured,...

Through a kaleidoscope of philosophy, critical theory, and folk theology, A Devil Every Day surveys the terrain where white Western culture blends into pure evil. Twisting into aphorisms, inner dialogues, and incantations, John Nyman's poems are caught between complacency and a disquieting agnosticism, contemplating the problematic pleasures and unremarkable monstrosities of the contemporary West. Ultimately, A Devil Every Day asks: what hope is there...

What is the measure of a woman? She is immeasurable. She is strong. She is a double force to reckon with. Jagjeet Sharma's "journalistic poetry" continues in this new poetry collection, Measure of a Wo/man. Poems in this collection are about the Wo/man. The Hindu God Shiva's ardhanishvara, a concept that she is both half man and half woman. Lord Shiva, one of the Hindu gods is referred to as the ultimate man, but one form of Shiva is also a fully...

Alternator blends catastrophe and consciousness, modern living and past transgressions, off-kilter imagery and the "hidden room" of the unsayable to construct a polyphonic triumph. Chris Banks threads fire through the eye of his imagination, and the product is these poems born of whole cloth: surrealist meditations, modern ghazals and powerful narrative sonnets that are both alive and burning.

In the spring of 2020, Jamie Sharpe was in New Brunswick, purportedly studying the famed Magnetic Hill outside Moncton. A dog-walker discovered Sharpe in a ditch, disrobed except for his backpack containing a manuscript … With his fifth collection, Get Well Soon, Sharpe reaffirms "he is utter master of his language. Whether [Sharpe's] poems are the result of long lucubration or the inspiration of the moment, they bear no mark of effort, and it...

In 2019, a group of scholar-artists led by Jill Carter stood with their audience in a liminal space at the 'edge of the woods'-a space between now and then, a space between now and later. Together, they engaged in a survivance intervention: an Indigenous reclamation of territory, using Storyweaving practices rooted in personal connections to the land as a method of restor(y)ing treaty relationships. Retreating to Re-Treat documents both their artistic...

From being someone who has faced a lot of heartache and heartbreak. From focusing on the glass being half empty(my troubles) to sometimes somewhat more than focusing on it being half full(the blessing attached to this pain). I have learned that sometimes you must flow with the things you cannot control by giving them to the Lord (Jesus Christ). He handles what I cannot, and I do what He has equipped me to do. I have learned to love others despite...

Since Karen's passing, Joan has been unable to share her music with the world, anguish snatching her desire to perform.

Le poème n'était pas pour Jacques Brault une question rhétorique ou seulement esthétique : il était indissociable de la vie, saisie dans tous ses aspects, les plus humbles, les plus quotidiens, comme les plus mystérieux. Ni vers ni prose, la poésie passait outre ces limites et circulait aussi librement dans ses essais o surgissaient ses « épiphanies pourvoyeuses de petite éternité ». Dans ses derniers ouvrages Chemins perdus, chemins trouvés,...
