"The Silence of the North" is a poetic reflection of Canadian least known and most enigmatic Arctic region. Alan Butcher challenges our notions of landscape and wilderness, culture and perception, the limits of experience, and the nature of being. This is a poetry collection that investigates the human understanding, parting the veil of the mundane to reveal passion, beauty, myth, and mystery of Canadian Arctic. At once atmospheric, with a surreal blend of emotion and memory, "The Silence of the North" is a fluid and ever-shifting landscape of possibilities. These poems are restless and inquisitive. They echo a desire to forge a voice that is as curious as it is distinctive. This poetry collection will appeal to all lovers of poetry, particularly those who enjoy striking imagery linking the quotidian to the universal.
