Book Synopsis The New Wascana Anthology by : Medrie Purdham
Download or read book The New Wascana Anthology written by Medrie Purdham and published by Canadian Plains Research Center. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Wascana Anthology is named for the Cree word "oskana," meaning "bones,"* but this anthology is no literary graveyard. It will introduce you to stories, poems, and essays that can be discussed over drinks, or used to impress friends years after leaving English 100 behind. Offering a taster's choice of the best Canadian writing, with a special focus on Aboriginal and Prairie writers, this anthology includes pieces selected to introduce you to the English literary canon. Going back hundreds of years, the oldest poems included here have no known author, while the youngest writer is a recent university graduate. Building on the bones of the canon (including all of Canada's Man Booker Prize-winners and newest Nobel Laureate), The New Wascana Anthology features writers such as Flannery O'Connor, Thomas King, Carmine Starnino, and Ursula K. Le Guin who will challenge your worldview. Most importantly, this anthology is about turning the page, opening your mind, and revelling in the pleasures of reading. *The bones referred to are the bones of plains bison, a species that once numbered in the tens of millions on the Great Plains.
Book Synopsis Hacker Packer by : Cassidy McFadzean
Download or read book Hacker Packer written by Cassidy McFadzean and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2015-04-14 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A playfully inventive and invigorating debut collection of poetry from a finalist for the CBC Poetry Prize and The Walrus Poetry Prize. With settings ranging from the ancient sites and lavish museums of Europe to the inner-city neighbourhood in North Central Regina where the poet grew up, the poems in Cassidy McFadzean’s startling first collection embrace myth and metaphysics and explore the contradictory human impulses to create art and enact cruelty. A child burn victim is conscripted into a Grade Eight fire safety seminar; various road-killed animals make their cases for sainthood; and the fantastical visions in Hieronymus Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights move off the canvas and onto the speaker’s splendid pair of leggings. Precociously wise, formally dexterous, and unrepentantly strange, the poems in Hacker Packer present a wholly memorable poetic debut.

These artifacts of the mind take many forms as evidenced by this publication. A Gay and Gray Anthology includes poetry, fiction, memoir, social criticism, and even a performance piece. The offerings are born of the heart, yet there is humor as well. Hopefully, there is something for everyone."--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book Drolleries written by Cassidy McFadzean and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second poetry collection from the award-winning author of Hacker Packer RAYMOND SOUSTER AWARD FINALIST Invoking human-animal hybrids in various stages of metamorphosis, Drolleries veers between the beasts of the forest and the opulence of the art gallery. Personal and historical struggles are held against the backdrop of the grotesque and fantastic: A marriage unravels in Goya's Black Room. The diagnosis of a blood-clotting mutation is read through the tarot. The violence of the patriarchy is filtered through the subconscious. In sonically rich lyric poems that traverse the vulnerability of confession and the dramatic possibilities of persona, Drolleries invokes its monsters as a means of working through internal turmoil, existential doubt, and heartbreak. This collection investigates how the lure of romantic relationships, the enchantments of art, and the seductions of power can be both destructive and transformative - and ultimately become a pathway to self-realization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Arcimboldo's famous seventeenth-century Mannerist portraits, the sitter's face is composed of organic matter. In subordinating a mixture of elements into an unrelated whole, imagination can transform the medium of expression itself.

The book draws on his two T. S. Eliot Prize-shortlisted collections The Blood Choir (2006) and The World Before Snow (2015). Vivid images, large abstractions, symbols, allegory, elegy, provocation, confession and lyric find a necessary place in his work. Arcimboldo's Bulldog records achievement and includes a promissory note towards his next collection.
