| Publisher Description: The often outrageous and always wise follow-up to 2008's Governor General's Awardnominated Be Calm, Honey shows David W. McFadden at his most inquisitive and provocative. Here you'll find ninety-nine poems full of surprises by a Canadian long-distance poet in his sixth decade of writing, a writer who never rests on his laurels or allows himself to become complacent. This is a book full of mystics and Golden Age movie stars, friends of McFadden and long-dead philosophers, and their tales are all told in the poet's deceptively plainspoken voice. |
