Celebrating poetry that resonates across borders temporal & spatial:
Published in the Spring of this year, Crossing Lines is the first major anthology of poetry by men and women who grew up in the U.S. and then emigrated to Canada during the Vietnam War era (1965-75). It offers surprising insights into this watershed period and explores provocative themes related to our own time. 76 poets are represented who have made, and continue to make, significant contributions to Canadian culture and society.
