Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Scofflaw is a long poem, a playful exploration of Indigenous-Settler relations amid globalized pressures. For the most part, the poem is a lyrical dialectic flowing between a shadowy figure known as Scofflaw and an enigmatic "we." The content ranges from the effect of pesticides on Manitoba butterflies to the reworking of a John Newlove poem on Indigenous peoples to Native remains beneath the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. The text culminates in a "lexicon standoff," where Scofflaw uses metaphysical means to avoid a character assassination, battling against the culling of words from the language. "Scofflaw in a long poem, a playful exploration of Indigenous-Settler relations amid globalized pressures."-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. With breathtaking virtuosity, Garry Thomas Morse sets out to recover the appropriated, stolen and scattered world of his ancestral people from Alert Bay to Quadra Island to Vancouver, retracing Captain Vancouver's original sailing route. These poems draw upon both written history and oral tradition to reflect all of the respective stories of the community, which vocally weave in and out of the dialogics of the text.A dramatic symphony of many voices, Discovery Passages uncovers the political, commercial, intellectual and cultural subtexts of the Native language ban, the potlatch ban and the confiscation and sale of Aboriginal artifacts to museums by Indian agents, and how these actions affected the lives of both Native and non-Native inhabitants of the region. This displacement of language and artifacts reverberated as a profound cultural disjuncture on a personal level for the author's people, the Kwakwaka'wakw, as their family and tribal possessions became at once both museum artifacts and a continuation of the tradition of memory through another language. Morse's continuous poetic dialogue of "discovery" and "recovery" reaches as far as the Lenape, the original Native inhabitants of Mannahatta in what is now known as New York, and on across the Atlantic in pursuit of the European roots of the "Voyages of Discovery" in the works of Sappho, Socrates, Virgil and Frazer's The Golden Bough, only to reappear on the American continent to find their psychotic apotheosis in the poetry of Duncan Campbell Scott.With tales of Chiefs Billy Assu, Harry Assu and James Sewid; the family story "The Young Healer"; and transformed passages from Whitman, Pound, Williams and Bowering, Discovery Passages links Kwakwaka'wakw traditions of the past with contemporary poetic tradition in B.C. that encompasses the entire scope of relations between oral and vocal tradition, ancient ritual, historical contextuality and our continuing rites. With breathtaking virtuosity, Garry Thomas Morse sets out to recover the appropriated, stolen and scattered world of his ancestral people.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When Tom, an art house aficionado, returns to his hometown to attend a film studies conference, he discovers that his ex-girlfriend Esme has recently married their former prof, Cinny. Contact with the couple, gossip with his friend Nasim, and flirtation with a Hollywood bit player known as Lady Lex draw Tom into a noirish plot that may have Chabrol-ish consequences for his rival, and permanently distance him from his fiancee, a skilled harpsichordist named Ciana. As he navigates shifting islands of personal memory, Tom begins to wonder if life is not just a retcon (or the most contrived form of retroactive continuity). The price of admission includes an amateur opera matinee, a pub discourse on Godard-McBride Breathless Paradox, a giallo nightmare, and a hypnagogic hallucination inspired by a Tarkovsky retrospective, all threatened by the skintight spectre of the next superhero franchise. Books in the series: 9781988168951 Tulpa Mea Culpa (Tulpa Series Book 1) 9781998779000 Retcon (Tulpa Series Book 2) AUTHOR: Garry Thomas Morse has published several collections of poetry, notably Discovery Passages, about the history of his Kwakwaka'wakw Indigenous ancestors, shortlisted for the Governor General's Award, and Prairie Harbour, also shortlisted for a Governor General's Award. His novels have gained critical attention for pushing the aesthetic envelope. He is the author of a speculative fiction series called The Chaos! Quincunx, and two of its three books have been nominated for the ReLit Award. Morse is the recipient of the 2008 City of Vancouver Mayor's Arts Award for Emerging Artist. He has also served as the 2018 Jack McClelland Writer-in-Residence at the University of Toronto, and the 2019 Carol Shields Writer-in-Residence at the University of Winnipeg.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When Gellhorn, a notable poet, begins a university residency in a "dynamic metropolis" and stays at the illustrious Maximo College, he finds himself scandalized, and for little known reason. Scrutiny by his new academic neighbors is the least of his worries, as he learns of the existence of Aaron Schnell, his physical pseudo-twin, and an actor and film "double." The Chair shares fragments from the oeuvre of Thomas Claque, a recently deceased author who contrived the tale of the pseudo-twins. The Chair's scholarship leads him to the real Maximo College, where he revives those characters and scenarios, before traveling to a smaller prairie town where he reimagines one of Claque's risque getaways. There he meets a young woman doing her creative thesis on the double in literature. Petra, a police clerk in an entirely different prairie city, receives a photograph of a missing person and recognizes a passenger from her weekday commute. Non-routine surveillance draws her deeper into his world until a global pandemic abruptly stalls her progress. Her romantic prospect soon leads to a greater mystery punctuated by the words, TULPA MEA CULPA, although its uncanny truth will be ultimately less provocative than serial coverage in the Prairie Pulse.
