“This is no quaint voice from the Land of Anne. Suffused with our era’s geist and angst, which have penetrated to the rural periphery, Bailey is a sharp-eyed, clarion-voiced witness.” —Richard Lemm Forecast: Pretty Bleak is a fresh look at life in rural PEI full of fascinating character sketches. These poems explore climate change, work, family, love, and the idea that sometimes all you've got is hope for better weather and more favourable winds tomorrow. Confessional, candid, and firmly grounded, these poems shine a light on a corner of our country and lift up voices that are rarely heard.
