Paperback. Condition: New. "Reading the Riot Act" is a phrase that has entered the popular lexicon, meaning the action taken by authority figures when they perceive that their "charges" are getting out of hand. The act itself is a seldom-used piece of legislation actually designed to prevent a riot from taking place. Supposedly, the mere mention of the Riot Act is enough to bring hardened miscreants bent on destruction to their collective senses. But if a riot has started, it's already too late to read the Riot Act. Every city has its distinct history of rioting-the Rocket Richard riots in Montreal, the Christie Pits riot in Toronto, the Winnipeg and Regina riots, even the Shakespeare riots in New York where rival factions rioted over which actor was the better interpreter of Shakespeare's work. 'Reading the Riot Act' is a popular history that rereads and rewrites the legacy of riots in Vancouver. The project was conceived following the city's Stanley Cup riots in 1994, when official reports and mediacoverage differed significantly from eyewitness accounts. Later, media reports on the APEC riots downplayed and obscured certain facets of the conflict. Seeking out sources beyond the official reports, Barnholden has compiled a record of participants and observers, allowing the "vanquished" to have their say. Barnholden shuns the simplistic "bad apple" explanation, and explores the deeper economic causes and effects of riots. "This book contains some stirring narrative of conflicts that have defined the history of Vancouver." - Prairie Fire.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A stunning collection from Governor General's Award winner Roy Miki, Flow presents all of this critically acclaimed writer's poetry from his collections Saving Face, Random Access File, Surrender, There, and Mannequin Rising as well as a substantial chapter of new, previously unpublished works. Including a foreword by poet and critic Louis Cabri, extensive interviews with Miki by the collection's editor, Michael Barnholden, and an exhaustive bibliography, Flow is the definitive edition of Miki's work. Also included are numerous full-colour photographs and photocollages, a practice Miki has become increasingly drawn to in recent years; in the book's previously published sections and in the much-anticipated section of brand-new work, Miki's poems and photographic works engage in a mutually enriching dialogue., and noted activist, instrumental in the movement for Japanese Canadian redress. All of Miki's roles and concerns coalesce and interpollinate in his perceptive poems, which remain precisely attuned to the complex relationships between race, language, and power as they map and interrogate the layers of history enfolded within place and identity. Flow presents all of Roy Miki's critically acclaimed poetry, including new work and photographs. An important collection from one of Canada's preeminent poets.
