Description
Modern Canadian poetry came into its own between 1918 and 1939. E.J. Pratt, F.R. Scott, A.J.M. Smith, Dorothy Livesay and A.M. Klein – some of the best-known Canadian poets – reached their full development during this period.
With a representative selection of the work of these five poets, plus an introduction to each by Wilson, this collection provides a unique picture of a group who challenged literary inhibitions and profoundly influenced the generation of poets to follow them.
