Coles A Skeptic in Springtime at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
A Skeptic in Springtime wrestles with uncertainty and aging, hurricanes, gravity, and particle theory. Amid all the unknowns, "Still, the white-throated sparrow cries I'm here, here, here, here." Although rooted in the PEI landscape where he grew up, MacLaine ranges farther afield to Assyrian myth in "Killing a Lassamu," to the Song Dynasty in "Su Dongpo Makes Ink," and to art in "Claude Monet in the Waiting Room." The book closes with an elegy to the late John Smith, a close friend and the former poet laureate of PEI. Combining keen observation of the natural world and the human condition, the poems in this collection contain, as Smith wrote, " a universe which has leapt from nothing into something ."
