À l'ombre de l'Orford ; suivi de L'offrande aux vierges folles: poésie

La poésie québécoise publiée entre les années 1900 et 1940 a été marquée par quelques oeuvres phares qui ont survécu…
aux effets de mode ; À l’ombre de l’Orford compte certainement parmi celles-là. À plus d’un titre, DesRochers assure le relais entre les poètes régionalistes du début du siècle et ceux que l’on nommera les poètes du pays, dans les années soixante. L'édition BQ en format de poche reprend la version établie par Richard Giguère pour l'édition critique publiée dans la Bibliothèque du Nouveau Monde aux Presses de l'Université de Montréal. L'ouvrage comprend une préface de Roger Chamberland, une chronologie et une bibliographie.Emile Nelligan ((Célébrités canadiennes)

recueil qui ne fait pas exception aux précédents livres de cet auteur si remarquable et si simple à la fois : dans cette œuvre comme dans les autres, l'écriture aboutie de Desbiens voyage entre la quotidienneté et la lucidité, et ce, toujours avec précision et économie. Malgré son caractère discret, elle se révèle bien rythmée, imagée, parfois même flamboyante. Cette poésie, très sensible, intime, éminemment touchante à lire, tantôt frappe le lecteur de front, tantôt le réconforte. Elle relève à la fois de la spontanéité de la jeunesse et de la sagesse de ceux qui ont presque tout vécuJumeau jumelle (Récit)

si c'était le dernier ? On y entre dans le temps du livre et dans le temps de la maladie : deux pièges monstrueux. Alors qu'une géante rouge grandit au centre du crâne de son frère, l'autrice tente de contenir les éclats de sa pensée. Son miroir jumeau lui renvoie les souvenirs de l'enfance, tout ce qui en elle a désiré que la vie soit magnifiée, sublimée. Elle n'a de cesse de réécrire encore et encore l'expérience de la peur et de la fragilitéIntroduction à la vie sans fin ((Papiers collés)é)

danger. But how can you fight it if you don't know how it works or where it comes from? Using a compelling mix of memoir, cultural criticism, and anti-oppressive theory, Khodi Dill breaks down how white supremacy functions in North America and gives readers tools to understand how racism impacts their lives. From dismantling internalized racism, decolonizing schools, joining social justice movements and more, Dill lays out paths to personal liberation and social transformation. Vibrant, dramatic collages by stylo starr complement Dill's propulsive voice. Fueled by joy and hope as much as by rage and sorrow, this groundbreaking book empowers racialized young people to be confident in their identities and embrace the fullness of their futuresSoft Inheritance

In her exceptional poetic debut, Fawn Parker meditates on grief, illness, and the open-handed relationship between material objects and memory.…
Written after her mother was diagnosed with cancer, Soft Inheritance follows the poet's rapidly evolving reality where "kindness is a scar," though "not all scar-makers are kind. ,"" Both a treatise on the sick body and the state of ""after"-post-caretaking, post-breakup, post-moving, and post-death-these poems question what is inherited, and ask what can safely be left behind. A diamond ring? A cancerous gene? Soft Inheritance is a finely crafted love letter to the people and places that imprint on a life.Shadow Blight

of Niobe-whose monumental suffering at the loss of her children literally turned her to stone-and others, this collection explores the experience of being swept away by grief and silenced by the world. Skirting the tropes (“o how beautiful / the poets make our catastrophes”), MacAskill interweaves the ancient with the contemporary in a way that opens possibilities and offers a new language for those “shut up in stillness.”My Grief, the Sun

A rolling call and response between antebellum Black history and the present that mediates it. Somewhere in the cut between…
Harriet Jacobs and surveillance, Southampton and sneaker game, Lake Providence and the supply chain, Bottom Rail on Top sets off a mediation between the complications of legacy and selfhood. In a kind of archives-powered unmooring of the linear progress story, award-winning poet D.M. Bradford fragments and recomposes American histories of antebellum Black life and emancipation, and stages the action in tandem with the matter of his own life. Amidst echoes and complicities, roots and flights, lineage and mastery, it's a story of stories told in knots and asides, held together with paper trails, curiosities, and hooks — a study that doesn't end.John Turner: An Intimate Biography of Canada's 17th Prime Minister

In this masterful and engaging biography, acclaimed journalist Steve Paikin brings to life John Turner (1929-2020), one of the most…
glamorous and successful politicians in Canadian history. Born in England, raised in BC, Turner was a champion sprinter and a Rhodes scholar who captured the national imagination as escort for Princess Margaret on her 1959 Canadian tour. Elected to Parliament in 1962, he served in Prime Minister Lester Pearson's cabinet and as Pierre Trudeau's attorney general, minister of justice, and finance minister. In 1984, he won a hotly-contested Liberal leadership contest and served a brief four months as Canada's seventeenth prime minister before falling to Brian Mulroney in a Progressive Conservative landslide. In this surprisingly candid and personal book, Paikin draws on unprecedented access to Turner's personal and public papers to show how he struggled to meet the towering expectations that came with his abundant gifts, and keep his faith in Canadian democracy despite the challenges of his own careerHealth for All: A Doctor's Prescription for a Healthier Canada

and deeply personal call for action on health that sets out the roadmap to our future well-being.Jane Philpott has spent her life learning what makes people sick and what keeps people well. She has witnessed miracles in modern medicine. She has also watched children die of starvation in a world that has plenty of food. With Health for All, she sounds a clarion call for a radical disruption in a health care system that is broken—but not beyond repair. The vision is rooted in a deep-seated commitment to health equity.Decades ago, a few visionary Canadian leaders put laws in place to ensure health care insurance for all. But the structures to deliver that care were never fully developed as envisioned. As a result, our health systems are not comprehensive or well-coordinated. In the wake of a pandemic, we risk it all falling apart. More than six million people have no family doctor, nor any other access to primary care. Emergency rooms are routinely closed. Exhausted health workers wonder if it will ever get better. Some say we should hand health care over to the private sector. But to abandon our commitment to publicly funded health care now would only lead to more expensive and less equitable care. Philpott outlines a different solution—an ambitious, once-in-a-generation reset of health systems with universal access to primary care teams.What sets this book apart is that it’s more than a prescription for better medical care. Philpott looks at the big picture of health for all. This includes an intimate look at the personal roots of well-being: hope, belonging, meaning, and purpose. Then, through real-life stories, she examines the impact of the social determinants of health. Finally, she explains that none of this will happen without the political will to do the hard work of rebuilding a healthy society. The remedy we await is serious leadership to implement what we already know and to put the well-being of Canadians at the top of the agenda.Mushrooms of the Pacific Northwest, Revised Edition (A Timber Press Field Guide)
