Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From Cohen to Carson provides the first book-length analysis of one of Canada's most distinctive fields of literary production. Ian Rogers argues that Canadian poets have turned to the novel because of the limitations of the lyric, but have used lyric methods - puns, symbolism, repetition, juxtaposition - to create a mode of narrative that contrasts sharply with the descriptive conventions of realist and plot-driven novels." "Detailed case studies of novels by Leonard Cohen, Michael Ondaatje, George Bowering, Daphne Marlatt, and Anne Carson, as well as sections on A. M. Klein and Anne Michaels, reveal how these authors framed their early novels according to formal precedents established in their poetry. In tracking the authors' shift from lyric to long poem to novel, Rae also investigates their experiments with non-literary art forms - photography, painting, and film. He argues convincingly that the authors discussed have combined disparate genres and media to alter notions of narrative coherence in the novel and engage the diverse but fragmented cultural histories of Canadian society." --Résumé de l'éditeur.

Book excerpt: The long-awaited biography of one of Canada’s most intriguing and beguiling artists. Do artists really thrive in big cities, or do they just learn to imitate New York? Is it a contradiction for an artist to be fiercely local and profoundly identified with international art movements? If the brilliant colourist and regionalist pioneer Greg Curnoe stood for any one thing, it was making trouble. An intriguing rebel throughout his life, he challenged ideas about what art should be, and pushed it in radical new directions — including away from Toronto, a city he rejected while succeeding masterfully in its galleries. His untimely death in 1992 cut short a career of constant reinvention. This first biography of Curnoe recaptures in vivid detail the public and personal life of an iconoclast who was called a “walking autobiography,” as his work seemed to document his endless struggle against many of the core tenets of the art of his time. An anti-establishment firebrand and a fierce opponent of American dominance in Canadian culture, Curnoe, in his conceptual practice, constructed a stunning body of work that remains a hallmark in late-twentieth-century Canadian art.

Book excerpt: This beautifully designed and comprehensive book is published to coincide with a major exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario. It is a splendid record of the work and life of a singularly significant Canadian artist who left a resonant legacy of the value of attachment to place. Greg Curnoe was known as a Canadian nationalist -- more specifically, as a regionalist -- which was reflected in his abiding belief in the importance of working with and from a particular locale. He found, meticulously explored and recorded his place in London, Ontario as painter, family man, ardent amateur historian, irreverent native son and endlessly curious intellect. From this base he created a body of work notable for its exuberant energy and fearless self-revelation, for its effervescent, saturated colour and deep involvement with questions of personal consequence and meaning. Along with beautiful and plentiful full-colour and black-and-white illustrations, Greg Curnoe: Life and Stuff includes three lively, authoritative texts. Sarah Milroy contributes an essay on Curnoe's artistic development. Dennis Reid thoughtfully considers his own involvement with Curnoe as friend and colleague, as well as the artist's broad influence. Judith Rodger has developed an annotated chronology of his career that's exemplary in its precise thoroughness. This book was published in partnership with the Art Gallery of Ontario.
