Ashes

by Andrew Lafleche, Amanda Earl (Editor), Robert Martin Evans (Editor)

Bestselling collection of Canadian poetry about survival, love, and loss beginning with the 2016 John Newlove Poetry Award poem, “defeated.” Ashes deals with a different kind of pain and heals a different kind of heartache. Lafleche takes readers through a journey of the most bitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them—because there is sweetness everywhere if you are just willing to look.

28 pages, Paperback

[Darrell Epp · Rating 5 out of 5]

Has that urgency, that unmistakable and mysterious something, that hooks you, makes you wonder where the author will take you next....

[Samantha Young · Rating 3 out of 5]

Thoroughly enjoyed more of the darker corners of the human mind, solid writing, wish it had been longer
