Paperback. Condition: New. In Stranger, Nyla Matuk's provocative, unabashedly sensual voice leads us to revelations about how our lives are increasingly disembodied by social media's flattened, outward identity markers. In place of this contested sense of self, Stranger reckons with a range of possible states of unknowing. Have we over-determined our identities, and thus diminished our appetites? "I fell asleep between two cold rivers," Matuk reports, "while the blue shadows of uncomplicated / conifers leaned into their own." Bold and spontaneous, piling images and ideas on top of each other to create opulent sound patterns, these poems reawaken the reader's sense of wonder.

Paperback. Condition: New. Taking as her inspiration the feudal rules that once enforced social rank by legislating what a person was permitted to wear and eat, Matuk discovers a new metaphor for contemporary desire in her first full-length collection. Through wildly imaginative and linguistically daring poems she explores 21st-century "sumptuary laws" that dictate societal divisions of luxury and necessity, splendor and squalor, and in the process creates an anthology of irresistible originality.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Resisting Canada gathers together poets for a conversation bigger than poetic trends. The book's organizing principle is Canada--the Canada that established residential schools; the Canada grappling with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission; the Canada that has been visible in its welcome of Syrian refugees, yet the not-always-tolerant place where the children of those refugees will grow up; the Canada eager to re-establish its global leadership on the environment while struggling to acknowledge Indigenous sovereignty on resource-rich land and enabling further colonization of that land. In the face of global conflicts due to climate change, scarcity, mass migrations, and the rise of xenophobic populisms, Canada still works with a surface understanding of its democratic values--both at their noblest and most deceptive. The work included in Resisting Canada--by celebrated poets such as Lee Maracle, Jordan Abel, Billy-Ray Belcourt, Louise Bernice Halfe, Michael Prior, and Leanne Betasamosake Simpson--addresses, among other things, Indigenous agency, cultural belonging, environmental anxieties, and racial privilege. These poems ask us to judge and resist a statecraft that refuses to acknowledge past and present wrongs Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
