Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In this début collection, Joseph Miller pays tribute to his life. Buzzing with gritty, inner-city Canadiana, crackling with wit, thrumming with deep love and intimacy, these poems acknowledge sorrow and celebrate beauty. Asparagus grows from a pile of manure. Sunlight sneaks through the window of a house where a woman is sick with cancer. A sparrow sings despite everything. With his home province of Saskatchewan as a rolling backdrop, Miller takes readers on a journey through personal struggles-such as his wife's illness and his work as executive director of a Christian rescue mission-and through some of society's historical and event recent challenges, such a COVID-19.Unescapably honest and reassuringly wise, A Flatlander's View offers hope in the strangest, darkest moments of humanity.
