Poets experimenting with "form" - with sonnets and ghazals, triolets and ballads, epigrams and blues - have been slipping these verses into their books alongside free verse. But dig deeper and it turns out that Canadian poets have a history of writing in form - from famous early practitioners such as Charles G. D. Roberts, Robert Service and Bliss Carman to recent Griffin Prize winner Ann Simpson and bestseller Christian Bok. Not to speak of Margaret Atwood, Irving Layton, Leonard Cohen, Alden Nowlan, George Elliott Clarke, P. K. Page, Lorna Crozier, Stephanie Bolster, Michael Redhill ... and the list goes on." "This comprehensive anthology explores Canadian form poetry from the sixteenth century to the present day. The result is a collection of more than 40 forms and 175 poems that will appeal to every poet and reader, as well as teachers and students. The book is arranged by sections, one for each form, with a brief introduction to that form's conventions and variations. An extended essay explores common poetic terms and technical devices."--BOOK JACKET.
