Seaway: New and Selected Poems

by Todd Swift

Swift is one of the leading Canadian poets and poetry activists of his generation. His critical study of Anglo-Quebec poetry, Language Acts, co-edited with Jason Camlot, was a finalist for the 2007 Gabrielle Roy Prize. He has had four previous collections of poems published in Montreal. He lives in London, England, with his wife, where he works as a lecturer in creative writing, editor, and writer. Seaway gathers together 80 poems and is the first full retrospective of a poetry career that spans over two decades. "... a compendium of eighty poems of superbly written free-form verse that is enthusiastically recommended for personal, academic, and community library poetry collections and reading lists."--Midwest Book Review
