| Publisher Description: Beverley Bie Brahic is a poet with her eye on what is happening between us, between continents on which she lives, between familial relationships, between languages in which she works. In this, her second collection -- the first to be published in Canada -- her assured and dignified voice speaks of the world around her, creating original and fascinating poems. |
