Produktbeschreibung
Dennis Cooley is one of Canada's most decorated and important poets. In his last collection, Wind and Horses, he ventures into the permissive and erotic, more ludic, comical. Partly political in writing the poverty and distress of the times, much of the poetry evolved into more emotional short stories so powerful you can hardly read them aloud. What runs through the poems is a sense of longing. They have been fired, but never held in the broken voices, the blocked and bewildered not-saying, a deep sympathy for the exhausted and threadbare figurers who weather the drought. In the poets own words; ''It is their music-something deep and yearning in them-I have tried to write.''

DENNIS COOLEY has lived most of his life on the Canadian prairies, where for over 40 years he has been active as teacher, editor, poet, critic, anthologist, publisher, mentor, and supporter of writing. His work has been immersed in family, the prairies, and a play with form. His most recent titles include two books of poetry-Gibbous Moon (Nominated for the McNally Robinson Best Book Award), and The Muse Sings, both from At Bay Press. He lives in Winnipeg, MB.
