Par Lorna Crozier. 2023
From Lorna Crozier, the poet that Ursula Le Guin called a “truth teller” and “visionary,” comes this new collection of…
soul-stirring poems that follow the death of a loved one.After That is a book written from the dark hollow we fall into when we lose those we love. Lorna Crozier’s sure poetry finds the words to engage with the grief that comes from the death of her partner, the writer Patrick Lane, whom she’d lived with for forty years, many of them tumultuous. With grace and precision, she illuminates sorrow. The light the poems cast travels far enough to reach anyone who has experienced loss. These pages engage us with many familiar yet magical things—not only paper wasps, but their libraries; not only herons, but their role as aging monks. Crozier takes us through the domestic and natural worlds into the cagey and metaphysical place we call the beyond. Without offering false comfort, the poems turn over our own grief so that we can catch a glimpse of the new life inside us again.Anthology of familiar poems grouped by themes such as youth, life, romance, friendship, character, prayer, nature, sorrow, growing old, and…

le poète Gaston Miron, tant il a épousé le destin incertain du Québec. Mais rien n'est plus éloigné de sa poésie que la notion de régionalisme ou d'exotisme. Ce poète a su, à partir de ses héritages, se nourrir des grands espaces et s'ouvrir à l'universel. Intellectuel engagé, il a dénoncé la situation d'aliénation linguistique, culturelle, des Canadiens français, et défendu avec passion l'existence de la langue française en terre nord-américaine. En tant qu'éditeur et cofondateur de l'Hexagone, il a travaillé à l'épanouissement de la poésie québécoise contemporaine et à la reconnaissance d'une littérature autonome, mais son engagement poétique a été incontestablement sa plus grande passion. L'Homme rapaillé, son oeuvre unique sans cesse reprise, reconfigurée, retrace la marche forcenée d'un poète en quête de son unité, un poète qui se dit empêché d'écrire et qui s'invente tel un naufragé dans sa langue". -- 4e de couvThe better angel: Walt Whitman in the Civil War
