<p><b>Winner, New Brunswick Book Award (Poetry) and Alcuin Society Book Design Awards Third Prize (Poetry) <br>Finalist, Derek Walcott Prize for Poetry</b></p><p>Sue Sinclair has been praised for her &#34;crisp, lyrical poems imbued with subtle, subtextual philosophic musings&#34; (<i>Globe and Mail</i>). She has been described as a poet who &#34;writes her way to a new understanding of the world and carries her readers with her&#34; (<i>Journal of Canadian Poetry</i>). Sinclair’s debut collection, <i>Secrets of Weather and Hope</i>, was nominated for the Gerald Lampert Award, while subsequent collections have earned a place on the Globe Top 100 list (<i>Mortal Arguments</i>), won the IPPY Poetry Award (<i>The Drunken Lovely Bird</i>), and the Pat Lowther Award (<i>Heaven’s Thieves</i>).</p><p>This collection includes an introductory essay by editor and poet Ross Leckie, over one hundred selected poems from Sinclair’s twenty-year career, and new poems that consider the poet’s evolving relationships with the idea of beauty and with the more-than-human world in a time of manufactured upheaval. The new poems, many never-before published, exemplify Sinclair’s masterful powers of observation and her precise, arresting language.</p>
