Montreal
Writers, stories, poems, history, people, events or things from or relating to Montreal
Ilona Martonfi, Wilde Rozen
I am left with only one impression from my first impression: it is time to read more Ilona Martonfi.
Sheryl Halpern, An Argument Against Jumping Off a Balcony
Halpern's poetry is addicting to read, evocatively sincere, knowing and novel.
Jessi MacEachern, Television Poems
The thing MacEachern gets about ekphrasis and TV is that these poems work like easter eggs: if you’ve seen it, know it, and then read the corresponding poem, it can be a portal of discovery.
Claire Sherwood, Eat Your Words
It’s a cure-all, it’s a catch-all, it’s an everything bagel, but the everything is kitchen lore, and the bagel is Montreal-style.
Simon Peter Eggertsen, Hawking Comes Close to Finding God
It’s rare to witness the emergence of a writer such as Eggertsen in any time period, in any country, in any lifetime.
Mayan Godmaire, Yesterday’s Tigers
We’re not in media res; we are part of the ritual that is audience-performance.
Ken Norris, Moon Over Thailand
Wistful and world-weary and world-travelled, Norris’s voice echoes the spry blank verse of Irving Layton or R. G. Everson.
