This book explores the meeting of the natural, suburban and inner-city experiences of Prince George. These poems look beneath the daily observations of a place jostled between stripmalls and pubs, the university and the mill, and a landscape that presses in at every corner, revealing a sometimes gritty underside. Al Rempel's poetry kicks the snow off alleyways, tramps around a fallen-in trapper's cabin, or sneaks onto the neighbour's front lawn -- all with a wink and a nod.
