Billy Mavreas : part two

How did you first engage with poetry?

Browsing through Cheap Thrills (a second hand book and record shop in Montreal) when I was 15 or so, this was in 1983 approx. I marvelled at beautiful little forgotten books. At the time they were priced at forty cents for some slim volume so I always brought something home. The game changer was finding a battered paperback copy of JF Bory’s Once Again.
