Summary
Poems of exploration and discovery from the pen of James Pollock. Here is a schoolboy’s fascination with the English teacher; the grandmother's old Bible; a Dantean-style extended account of a hiking adventure with a young son. Further out in time… and geography, Pollock muses on figures from Canadian history, including explorer Henry Hudson, literary theorist Northrop Frye and pianist Glenn Gould. 2012.
