Description
From one of Canada's most acclaimed poets and the winner of the Governor General's Award for Poetry.
This book, Don McKay's ninth collection, practises "the dark art of reflection" - which, as one of the poems tells us, whether boldly or capriciously, could not have existed without the moon - as it moves ever more deeply into ideas of home.
