Winter Walk: A Collection of Poems, is the debut book of poetry
from Canadian poet Brian Wood. Served up in the style of classical
poems, this collection of verse channels all the old poets like
Frost, Whitman, and Hopkins, and does so with a reverence and
respect for the tradition of poetry that we see today being widely
appreciated as contemporary voices of poets all over. Brian mixes
and mingles with the best of them, and his collection of verse
certainly aspires to remind us about where poetry came from and
remind us about where it can go, which is to say an expedition that
helps us all recall and recant memories and experiences that are as
timeless as poetry itself. Reviews for WINTER WALK: A COLLECTION OF
POEMS- "Brian Wood is the kind of poet who reminds me of my
favorites (Larkin, Frost, Auden). His poems have a meter, and form,
and a classicism that is missing from most modern poetry. His words
have a refreshing resonance that reaches far beyond what you see on
the page. I enjoy them a great deal." --Thomas Trofimuk,
authorofWaiting For Columbus "Any man who loves dogs and words,
especially together, is someone I like. Any one who uses those
words as Brian Wood does in this collection of his poems, I admire.
There are questions here, some with answers, all provoking. There
are moments here we have all felt, both of helplessness and of
surprising inner strength. Take a walk with his dogs and his words
-- you'll find it refreshing."-- Roy MacGregor, author of Northern
Light
