Size: Paperback

Winner, New Brunswick Book Award (Poetry) and Alcuin Society Book Design Awards Third Prize (Poetry)
Finalist, Derek Walcott Prize for Poetry
Sue Sinclair has been praised for her "crisp, lyrical poems imbued with subtle, subtextual philosophic musings" (
Globe and Mail
). She has been described as a poet who "writes her way to a new understanding of the world and carries her readers with her" (
Journal of Canadian Poetry
). Sinclair's debut collection,
Secrets of Weather and Hope
, was nominated for the Gerald Lampert Award, while subsequent collections have earned a place on the Globe Top 100 list (
Mortal Arguments
), won the IPPY Poetry Award (
The Drunken Lovely Bird
), and the Pat Lowther Award (
Heaven's Thieves
).
This collection includes an introductory essay by editor and poet Ross Leckie, over one hundred selected poems from Sinclair's twenty-year career, and new poems that consider the poet's evolving relationships with the idea of beauty and with the more-than-human world in a time of manufactured upheaval. The new poems, many never-before published, exemplify Sinclair's masterful powers of observation and her precise, arresting language.
