My Beloved Wager gathers essays by noted poet and translator Erin Moure, and records a quarter century of writing practice emerging from a city of exhilarating poetic and translatory possibility: Montreal. In her essays and linguistic-sculptural interventions on what poetry makes possible, Moure reveals why she has placed her bets on poetry as a way of life. In these works, the richness of poetry is laid bare as Moure challenges us to think more deeply about who we are as speakers, readers, writers, and citizens of the world.

Autorenporträt
Erín Mouré is a Canadian poet and translator who lives in Montreal. Since releasing her first book in 1979, she has published several award-winning English poetry collections and translated the poetry of acclaimed Quebec writer Nicole Brossard from French (with Robert Majzels), Chus Pato from Galician, Fernando Pessoa from Portuguese, and Andrés Ajens from Spanish. Mouré has published poetry and translations in over 150 journals and anthologies in several countries, and her poems have been translated into eight languages. In 2008, Mouré was awarded an honorary doctorate (D.Lit.) from Brandon University in recognition of her contributions to poetry. Her most recent collections are O Cadoiro (2007) and Little Theatres (2005). Her translation of Chus Pato's famed m-Talá was released simultaneously in Canada and the UK in spring 2009, and a book of collaborations with poet Oana Avasilichioaei, Expeditions of a Chimæra, was published in the fall of 2009. Mouré's next solo book of poetry, O Resplandor, will be released in April 2010.
