Subject: new book
Pardon my being chuffed, but I'm holding in my hot little hand the
first copies of Continuations, Sheila E Murphy's and my collaborative
long poem. It's a beautiful production from the University of Alberta
Press.
Roo Borson, herself part of a collaborative group, and last year's
winner of the Griffin Prize, has this to say about Continuations: 'The
strength of this book is in its quick-change artistry, the sensation of
flux that is continuous, and capable at any moment of erupting into
epiphany or surprise.'
I tried to copy the info from UAP into a note & turn it into plain text
but JISCMAIL is having none of it. So all I can do is suggest you check

What a pleasure it has been working with Sheila at this ongoing project
(so the book only has the first 25 sections).
