Fauna fiction by Christiane Vadnais, translated by Pablo Strauss In a near-future world ravaged by climate change, who will win in the struggle between humanity and nature? A thick fog rolls in over Shivering Heights. The river overflows, the sky is streaked with toxic green, parasites proliferate in torrential rains and once safely classified species – humans included – are evolving and behaving in unprecedented ways. Against this poetically hostile backdrop, a biologist fights to understand the nature and scope of the changes transforming her own body and the world around her. Ten lush and bracing linked climate fictions depict a world gorgeous and terrifying in its likeness to our own. Fauna, Christiane Vadnais’s first work of fiction, won the Horizons Imag- inaires speculative fiction award, the City of Quebec book award, and was named one of 2018’s best books by Radio-Canada. ‘Reminiscent of David Kronenberg, Kafka, and H.G.

Credit: Maryse Cléro-Nobréga FICTION | 3 The Dark Library fiction by Cyrille Martinez, translated by Joseph Patrick Stancil Libraries are magical places. But what if they’re even more magical than we know? In Cyrille Martinez’s library, the books are alive: not just their ideas or their stories, but the books themselves. Meet the Angry Young Book, who has strong opinions about who reads what and why. He’s tired of people reading bestsellers, so he places himself on the desks of those who might appreciate him. Meet the old Historian who mysteriously vanished from the stacks. Meet the Blue Librarian, the Mauve Librarian, the Yellow Librarian, and spend a day with the Red Librarian trying to banish coffee cups and laptops. Then one day there are no empty desks anywhere in the Great Library. A great horde of student workers has descended, and they will scan every single book in the library: the much-borrowed, the neglected, the popular, the obscure. What will happen to the library then? Will it still be necessary? The Dark Library is a theoretical fiction, a meditation on what libraries mean in our digital world. Has the act of reading changed? What is a reader? A book? Martinez, a librarian himself, has written a love letter to the urban ISBN 9781552454077 forest of the dark, wild library, where ideas and stories roam free. 5 x 8 | 144 pp | pbk $20.95 CDN | $15.95 US FIC064000 FICTION / Absurdist ’The caustic and often hilarious story of the misadventures of a library, all the concerns and issues facing the professions … The fantastic with a hint of EPUB 9781770566224 irony of Cyrille Martinez’s writing is reminiscent of Marcel Aymé.’ OCTOBER 2020 – Livres Hebdo ‘Over a documentary base that it itself worth reading, he composes a passionate fiction, almost fantastic, showing the defeat of the printed word by the digital.’ – L’Humanité cyrille martinez is a poet, novelist, and librarian living in Paris.

His mom took off but it’s okay because his dad’s a wrestler and he always wins. Even when he gets laid off from his job. Melissa is in 64. She has to look after her siblings because there’s a restraining order that means her mom can’t be within fifty metres of them. So when Melissa needs to tell her something, she leaves a note on the sidewalk near where her mother is looking for customers. And Roxane, in 61, obsessed with the violin, collects her mom’s empties so she can sell them for a snack at the depanneur. They hear each other through the thin walls.

FICTION | 5 The Carrying Place Stories of Indigenous Toronto edited by Denise Bolduc, Mnawaate Gordon-Corbiere, Rebeka Tabobondung, Brian Wright-McLeod, and John Lorinc A collection of perspectives by and about Indigenous Toronto, past, present, and future Beneath every major city in North America lies a deep and rich Indigenous history that has been colonized, paved over, and ignored. Few of its current inhabitants know that Toronto has seen 12,000 years of different peoples, including the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinaabe, the Huron-Wendat, and the Mississaugas of the New Credit, and a vibrant culture and history that thrives to this day. With original contributions by Indigenous elders, scholars, journalists, artists, activists, and historians about art, food, health, and more, this unique Coach House Books anthology explores the poles of erasure and cultural continuity that have come to define a crossroads city-region that was known as a meeting place IMAGE TO COME long before the arrival of European settlers. Contributors include political scientist Hayden King, historian Alan Corbiere, musician Elaine Bomberry, artist Duke Redbird, playwright Drew Hayden Taylor, educator Kerry Potts, writer/journalist Paul Seesequasis and ISBN 9781552454152 former Mississaugas of the New Credit chief Carolyn King. 5.5 x 8.5 | 192 pp | pbk $23.95 CDN | $18.95 US denise bolduc is an accomplished creative director, producer, programmer, LCO013000 LITERARY COLLECTIONS / Native American speaker and arts consultant recognized for her involvement across disciplines.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Imagine you’re invited to a party. You arrive at the venue, slip past security, and Margaret Atwood is there; so are Michael Ondaatje, Anne Carson, and Dionne Brand. CanLit’s luminaries surround you, and having never brushed elbows with so many prominent writers, you turn paparazzi and start taking photographs in earnest. Point and click—easy to tell who monopolizes the spotlight and who falls back. It’s only once you focus manually, looking for an unconventional angle, that you begin to notice others: a younger, more anonymous crowd pushing at the margins, trying to bypass the guest list. So you raise your camera to include them too, at least those close enough to see clearly. Some of the shots will turn out perfectly—balanced composition, candid expressions that capture the palpable energy of the event. Some won’t. The blur of time will seep in, poor exposure rendering the photographs unusable. You might think I’m describing a Griffin Poetry Prize gala. I am, of course, but this is also the plight of prospective anthologists. Working without the benefit of hindsight, anthologists are responsible for scouting talent in little magazines, hard-to-find books, and critical periodicals. Canonization is a gamble, and time and time again Canadian editors have either gone all in or hedged their bets, offering up both generation defining compilations and remixed versions of established texts. With New Provinces, F.R. Scott curated 13 The Next Wave the first essential anthology of Canadian poetry in 1936. Providing a platform for future icons like E.J.

  • Review of the Response of Weeds: a Misplacement of Black Poetry on the Prairies , by Bertrand Bickersteth (Edmonton: Newest Press, 2020) 88 Pp
    Review of The Response of Weeds: A Misplacement of Black Poetry on the Prairies , by Bertrand Bickersteth (Edmonton: NeWest Press, 2020) 88 pp. paper. The dedication is intended for anyone who has had to answer to various versions of "where are you from?" In "Grown in Alberta", identity relies on the image of a "simulacrum", such as an image or representation of someone or something, an unsatisfactory imitation or substitute. In this instance, the poet turns to Michigan, where he asked the question but in Alberta, by comparison, he will always be asked. So his attention shifts from the hand, to the map, and then back to the hand. He turns to the Canadian prairies and his dream of an empty grain elevator. He recounts how "a landscape was hinted in its spaces." In "So What" which passes as a cheeky answer back, to "So, where are you from?", the poet acknowledges "I still mean here." Harlem farming was based on displaced aboriginal people but in Alberta it pertains to "the North on top", thus "(upside down)". Nomadic musicians reflect the seasons: "We read and reseed in spring". "Now I'm Looking, Now I'm Unaware" is a poem in which the comparison with Michigan is distinctive because the poet possesses "the would-be echo", the half-rhyme "stuck" and "struck" are contrasted, and he concludes "I am comparing this field/ to one in Alberta/ burnished gold and flat." In "Harlem Farming", the poet catalogues the landmarks in New York City, until he reaches the conclusion held in suspense, "North of Harlem/farming/in Saskatchewan and Alberta//Obviously".

  • Sina Queyras (1963 – ) Is a Poet, Novelist and the Founder and Editor of Lemon Hound a Very Active Poetry and Poetics Website
    Parliamentary Poet Laureate POETRY CONNECTION: LINK UP WITH CANADIAN POETRY Sina Queyras (1963 – ) is a poet, novelist and the founder and editor of Lemon Hound www.lemonhound.com, a very active poetry and poetics website. Her third collection of poetry, Lemon Hound (Coach House Books, 2006), received the Pat Lowther Award and a Lambda Literary Award. In 2005, she edited Open Field: 30 Contemporary Canadian Poets (Persea Books), an anthology of Canadian poetry published by a U.S. press. She later edited Canadian Strange, a folio of contemporary Canadian writing for Drunken Boat, where she is a contributing editor. From 2005 to 2007, Queyras co-curated the Belladonna* reading series in New York. Her most recent work, Expressway, was written mainly in Calgary, while she was the Markin-Flanagan Writer-in-Residence. Her work has been published widely in journals and anthologies, including Joyland | A hub for short fiction. She teaches creative writing at Concordia University in Montreal, and has taught at Haverford College and Rutgers University.1 Though she works primarily as a poet and editor, her novel Autobiography of Childhood (Coach House Books, 2011) has garnered significant praise. Marilyn Bowering comments, “A family saga with the sweep of Ann-Marie MacDonald, the poetic depth of Anne Michaels and the tragedy and resilience of Alice Sebold’s The Lovely Bones.” Unleashed (BookThug, 2009) is an intriguing collation that probes the conceptual practice of blog documentary, an “experiment begun for many reasons – a way for an expat to keep in touch with fellow Canadian writers and artists, a way to come to terms with the increasing relevance of the internet in literary lives, and a way to figure out why, after decades of gains, women writers are still grossly underrepresented in critical dialogues.” 1 Wikipedia, “Sina Queyras” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sina_Queyras Sina Queyras Besides Lemon Hound, some other recent collections of Queyras’ poetry include Expressway (Coach House Books, 2009), Teeth Marks (Nightwood Editions, 2004) and Slip (ECW Press, 2001).
