Some Lines of Poetry

Om Some Lines of Poetry

For bpNichol¿s 80th birthday, a selection of 80 pieces from his 1980s notebooks, an astounding trove of never-before-seen work. One of Canadäs most beloved poets, bpNichol (1944¿1988), left a huge legacy of poetry, prose, scripts, comics, and playful interrogation of language after his untimely passing in 1988. In celebration of what would have been Nichol¿s eightieth birthday, Some Lines of Poetry gathers excerpts from Nichol¿s journals across the 1980s to give a unique perspective on craft, process, and a writer¿s life. Featuring works in progress, insight into Nichol¿s thinking, previously unpublished prose and lyric, visual, and sound poems, Some Lines of Poetry documents Nichol¿s ¿apprenticeship to language¿ and his playful daily exploration of the limits of writing. Lovingly edited by noted poet-scholars Derek Beaulieu and Gregory Betts, who provide an afterword contextualizing Nichol¿s practice, Some Lines of Poetry is a map of hidden corners, a guidebook to poetic play, and a tribute to Nichol¿s ongoing influence.
