Couverture de From Cohen to Carson: The Poet's Novel in Canada par Ian Rae

Résumé

Présentation de l'éditeur 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. Biographie de l'auteur Ian Rae is assistant professor of literature, McGill University.
