Description

Over the last 45 years, Marshall Hryciuk's writing shows 5 distinct kinds; haiku,translations of symbolist poetry, concrete/visual poetry, long poems as well as the sound-sprung mid-length, discursive poems such as are featured here in In Search of Tatiana. His "No Holds Bard Project" was begun in 1985 to introduce into the abyss of Anglo-American thinking about poetry the French Symbolist tradition combining both the material contact with the sound of words as an intuitive lead in poetry with a review of the contexts of its material production. This is Volume 5 in that series, combatatively and joyously invoking bp Nichol's Translating Translating Apollinaire and Vladimir Mayakovsky's agony over his lost lover and muse, Tatiana.

About the author

Marshall Hryciuk began writing poetry in his home town of Hamilton, Ontario, and continued to write while working on his BA in Philosophy from the University of Toronto. He served for three years as its secretary-treasurer and was one of the organizers of the Harbourfront International Haiku Festival in 1980. In 1982 he helped found and continues to co-edit Inkstone, which has become the foremost magazine in North America devoted exclusively to haiku.
