Book Description: From the Introduction: Drawing Canadian poets in performance has always been my particular pleasure. It s different from making a formal portrait the poet is there but not static involved and moving with the poem in personal, intimate ways I can hone in on if I pay close enough attention. It is a special way of listening.Heather Spears This long awaited and unique anthology of Canadian poetry offers a glimpse of poets in action through the expressive drawings of poet/artist Heather Spears. Fifty of Canada s most revered contemporary poets contemplate the subject of line lines of poetry, landscape or art each poem accompanied by a pencil portrait of a moment of performance during a literary event. Heather Spears line drawings have an active, kinetic quality highly gestural, the lines move and merge with the lines of poetry on the page. The reader has the sense of being present in the audience, as a succession of poets take the stage. Line by Line is an important chronicle of Canadian literature and literary figures of our day. Including poetry by: Margaret Atwood Joe Blades George Bowering Mick Burrs Jocko Sarah Klassen Lionel Kearns Pat Lane Christopher Levenson Daniel David Moses Jay MacPherson Colin Morton Roger Nash John Oughton P.K.
