Guest editor Rob Taylor, author of the widely acclaimed collection
The News, brings a passionate ear for rhythm, an eye for narrative
compression, an appetite for vital subject matter, and an affinity
for warmth and wit to his selections for Best Canadian Poetry 2019.
The fifty ruggedly independent poems gathered here tackle themes of
emergence, defiance, ferocious anger, gratitude, and survival. They
are alive with acoustic energy, precise in their language, and
moving in their use of the personal to explore fraught political
realities. They emit a cloud of invisible energy, a charge.
