The Best of the Best Canadian Poetry in English takes the pulse of the last decade of Canadian poetry with ninety superb poems that have excelled-twice-at the test of Best. Chosen from the first nine volumes of the landmark Best Canadian Poetry series by editors Molly Peacock and Anita Lahey, this special tenth-anniversary edition highlights a vibrant variety of subjects from romance and family to ecology and the economy-not to mention bears. Ranging from such iconic Canadian poets as Ondaatje, Carson, Clarke, Page and Moritz to unexpected upstarts, The Best of the Best Canadian Poetry in English is a must-read for anyone with a stake or interest in contemporary Canadian literature. Includes an index for readers, notes from the poets, and provocative clips from past introductions by Guest Editors.
