This edition of E.J. Pratt's letters is the final volume in the
Collected Works series. Because of Pratt's role in the making of
Canadian culture between and after the World Wars, his
correspondence highlights key moments in our cultural history and
provides a view of the enterprise from its very centre. The letters
take us into his "workshop," illuminating the research behind his
distinctive documentary long poems and the social nature of his
creative production. They also reveal the complex network of
writers, critics, artists and political figures of which Pratt was
a part, the evolution of the Canadian book trade from the 1920s
through to the early 1960s, and the emergence of radio (and
specifically, of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) as a tool
for forging national identity. Pratt's correspondence both confirms
the public persona of one of Canada's first literary celebrities
and provides glimpses of the private character behind the mask.
