Micheline Maylor : part four


What other poetry books have you been reading lately?

            I work for a press, I’ve been mainly reading things not published yet, but one to watch for is Ruba’iyat for the Time of Apricots by Basma Kavanagh to be released this September. It’s a book length long poem about the importance of women, the environment, and beautifully told in succulent language that makes you want to fall in it like a blue pool of happiness. Look for it this September at the Winnipeg International Writers’ Festival. Share it with your mothers, and aunts, and grandmothers. It’s important work and a tribute to those that women came before us.
