The Blue Hour of the Day: Selected Poems

by Lorna Crozier

The Blue Hour of the Day: Selected Poems Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Over the course of a career spanning three decades, Lorna Crozier has become one of Canada’s most beloved poets, receiving high acclaim and numerous awards, including the Governor General’s Award, the Pat Lowther Poetry Award, and the Canadian Authors Association Award. Now, in this definitive selection of poems, which draws on her eight major collections and includes many of the poems for which she is justly celebrated, Crozier’s trademark investigations of family, spirituality, love’s fierce attachments, and bereavement and loss have been given a new framework. As a sapphire generates a blue light from within, The Blue Hour of the Day demonstrates Crozier’s dazzling capacity to bring depths to light, unfailingly and unflinchingly. It represents the best work of an icon of Canadian poetry.

Synopsis:

One of Canada’s most multi-award-winning poets comes of age in her first selected book of poems.

Lorna Crozier’s warm, evocative poetry cuts to the bone of truth and is always in demand. Her successful previous collections are now honed into this mid-career selection that spans three decades. This book will be a must-have for Lorna Crozier’s large poetry audience.
