Sommer shadows the Shakes-pearean sonnet, taking the most traditional form for expressing love and expanding its range and message to reflect our times. Sommer takes the sonnet beyond its traditional territory of love between man and woman to embrace the natural world around him and the deteriorating ecology of the planet. The result is a rich weave of past and present, love and pain, language and world.

Autorenporträt
Richard Sommer taught myth and poetry at Montreal's Concordia University for many years, served three decades as a volunteer game warden in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, and led a citizens' environmental group in a seven-year battle, ultimately successful, to save the Townships' Pinnacle Mountain from developers. Sommer's books include Homage to Mr. Macmullin, Blue Sky Notebook, left hand mind, Milarepa, The Other Side of Games, Selected and New Poems, Fawn Bones, The Shadow Sonnets, and Cancer Songs. In 2004, Sommer was diagnosed with prostate cancer, and the verse journal Cancer Songs was an important part of his response to this challenge.
