Description
David Wevill's work slowly fell from view in Britain, and indeed the USA, after the publication of 1973's Where the Arrow Falls, although a number of collections appeared in his native Canada: Other Names for the Heart (1985), Figure of Eight (1987), Child Eating Snow (1994), Solo With Grazing Deer (2001) and Asterisks (2007) were all published in Toronto. The newly-published work in those volumes is all gathered here, together with some uncollected poems.
"Wevill has attempted to bring to his work the best of many different poetries: the terseness of Spanish language poets such as Lorca, Neruda, Machado and Paz; the meditative depth and strength of spirit found in Central and East European verse; the violent, often surreal perceptions of his British contemporaries; and the sharp, vibrant images that span the gap between life and death that link him to the essential canon of Canadian poetry." -from the cover of Other Names for the Heart
