About This Book

Sue Sinclair has been praised for her "crisp, lyrical poems imbued with subtle, subtextual philosophic musings" ( Globe and Mail ). She has been described as a poet who "writes her way to a new understanding of the world and carries her readers with her" ( Journal of Canadian Poetry ). Sinclair's debut collection, Secrets of Weather and Hope, was nominated for the Gerald Lampert Award, while subsequent collections have earned a place on the Globe Top 100 list ( Mortal Arguments ), won the IPPY Poetry Award ( The Drunken Lovely Bird ), and the Pat Lowther Award ( Heaven's Thieves ).

This collection includes an introductory essay by editor and poet Ross Leckie, over one hundred selected poems from Sinclair's twenty-year career, and new poems that consider the poet's evolving relationships with the idea of beauty and with the more-than-human world in a time of manufactured upheaval. The new poems, many never-before published, exemplify Sinclair's masterful powers of observation and her precise, arresting language.
