Produktbeschreibung
This emotional poetry collection portrays everyday life in Northern Ontario and succeeds in imparting a vision of Northern landscapes and sensibilities. Simple yet evocative poems use striking images to reflect on the isolation and distress but also bring out tremendous beauty of Northern Ontario. Throughout the book, a young woman looks at her daily life, the passions and confusions of the heart, the melancholy set against the landscapes around Fauquier, Sudbury and Blind River. The text draws a narrative arc around key moments that form four phases, leading this woman from an uncertain youth in the North to a new awareness of her own identity and personality that opens up a changing perspective on the world.
