Trade Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. A Near Fine copy with a touch of edgewear to multicolor illustrated wraps. 59pp., 16mo - over 5¾ in. - 6¾ in. // 'In language that is direct as the noon-day sun Toronto's Poet Laureate, Pier Giorgio Di Cicco returns to the wilderness terrain of his Trillium nominated The Dark Time of Angels to ask difficult questions of an acutely examined life. The Visible World is a metaphysical journey through the landscape of a traitor heart with its primal urgencies and infinite capacity for wonder. It is Di Cicco's great gift to be able to cut away the assumptions of the material world and show the fine grain of existence in all its contradictory splendour. Di Cicco, as Dennis Lee has written,"has blazed one of the moving, exemplary paths in contemporary poetry." The Visible World will show once again whyhe must be considered one of today's essential poets.' -- publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. A Near Fine copy with a touch of shelfwear. // 'In 1982 Pier Giorgio Di Cicco entered a monastery and didn't break publishing silence for fifteen years. In 2004 he was elected Poet Laureate of the City of Toronto and went on to become a renowned speaker on urban design and the future of cities. In 2017 he moved into the oldest haunted church rectory in Canada, from where he mapped a cyber-cosmology for our times with wizardly humor, holographic abandon and a litany of blessings across dimensions. The former monk became the ghost of St. Columbkille Enclosed in this book are catalogues and inventories of wish fulfillment, and a fascinating 'virtual game' in which the 'player' becomes master of an imagination not his own, where past and present and future find a trajectory that makes faster-than-light travel look old-fashioned. Wishipedia is the public code to the private space that is both mythic and stunningly contemporary.' -- publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A Very Good copy with light bumping to corners, light shelfwear and an uncreased spine. Internally clean and free of markings. // 'In his first book since the Griffin-shortlisted Why Are You So Sad?, David W. McFadden offers up a gross of sonnets that display his trademark wit, mischief, curiosity, and quirky wisdom. A tour de force of compression, these brief poems Ñ as full and satisfying as his longer narrative works Ñ explore politics, religion, love, and poetry itself, with cameo appearances by Charles Bukowski, Jesus Christ, George Bowering, and Junichiro Tanizaki. Be Calm, Honey is at once deeply humanistic, poignant, and funny as hell, plainspoken, philosophical, and outrageous. Now into his fifth decade of writing, McFadden shows us what it is to live a life devoted to poetry.' -- publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. A Near Fine copy with a touch of wear. // 'From the 'endlessly inventive' mind of one of Canada's greatest poets, comes Dead Men of the Fifties, a rollicking tour through a hopeful, headlong decade filled with jive talkin' jazzmen, the tallest dancer in burlesque, regular folks, movie stars, and TV dogs. Following the success of last year's Trillium Award nominated The Dark Time of Angels, Di Cicco proves once again that his mercurial talent can quickly shift directions and stop on a dime.' -- publisher.…

Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. "The 100 poems making up The Milk of Birds. . . began as a deliberate homage to Kenneth Rexroth's 100 Poems from the Chinese. Soon into his progress, however, the author felt the writing beginning to pull away from the Rexroth model, becoming, instead, a series of short, sometimes plangent, sometimes meditative, sometimes exuberant takes on the beauty and travail of domestic life, on the separateness that is the enemy to love, on the witnessing of the night and the cold that lies at the heart of age and one's overview of all that life has meant.".…
