Product Description
The 1960s ushered in a new wave of Canadian poets and a unique period in Canadian cultural history. Individually and as a group these writers undertook new approaches to their craft. Leonard Cohen, Margaret Atwood, John Newlove, George Bowering, Gwendolyn MacEwen, bill bissett, and Michael Ondaatje set the tone for what was called the “now generation,” while Milton Acorn and Al Purdy bridge the gap from the previous generation. This important anthology affirms the continuation of Canada’s unique poetic tradition.
