| Publisher Description: Ian Rae argues that Canadian poets have turned to the novel because of the limitations of the lyric, but have used lyric methods to create a mode of narrative that contrasts sharply with the usual novel conventions. He includes case studies of novels by Michael Ondaatje, George Bowering, Daphne Marlatt and others. |
