Morency's subtlety of language gives us a heightened sense of the everyday that tells us something about our humanity.

He shows us that just as we can inhabit a landscape, we can also inhabit poetry. Words that Walk in the Night is a translation of Les Paroles qui marchent dans la nuit , published by éditions du Boréale (1994).…mehr
