- Summary
- This book is a special event in Canadian publishing, a comprehensive gathering of interviews with and by many of Canada's most exciting poetic talents. In each of these seventeen conversations, a younger and/less widely known poet questions an older, more celebrated peer on a wide range of issues related to what Chaucer called "the craft so long to learn."
