In the Writers' Words

In The Writers' Words Volume 2 is a collection of interviews of ten significant contemporary Canadian poets, including Brian Bartlett, Roo Borson, George Elliott Clarke, M. Travis Lane, John B. Lee, Bruce Meyer and Al Moritz. In this book, the writers speak in-depth about the importance of personal events in their lives, their aesthetics, the social and geographical contexts, historical background, the influence of other writers and the evolution of their poetry during their careers. These poets give a larger sense of the nature and the development of contemporary Canadian poetry.
