Daniel Scott Tysdal is a Canadian poet whose work approaches the lyric mode with an experimental spirit. In June 2007, Tysdal received the ReLit Award for Poetry.
More like 2.5 stars for me. Though I took my time with it, I found it really difficult to understand. The parts I got the gist of made me feel wonderful, but more like I'd solved the puzzle of meaning rather than felt touched by the poems themselves. I guess it just wasn't for me; the form was too hard to understand.
Tysdal's a fantastic, lively professor though! An all-round great guy.
