Description
Exploring the connections between writing and living, this collection of poems keeps alive a vision of essential human freedom that escapes from the confines of nationalism and commerce. Moving between the present set in the prairies of Canada and the past of Guyanese memory, these poems shave away the dulling force of habit to offer a fresh way of looking at the world.
