Publisher's Synopsis
'Galaxy' is about a wounded family, a prairie place, love that is queer and conventional, longing and loss, and a light shone into dark corners. ' Galaxy' is "emotional biography", as Margaret Laurence called it, where the facts are fabricated, but the feelings are authentic. "A truly wonderful collection of poems. Wonderful and clear imagery as well as a "real" and "true" sense of place, love, longing, family, and the constant struggle and re-negotiation of self and experience. 'Galaxy' possesses a simple but sensual approach to language and tone." - Gregory Scofield, author of 'kipocihkan: Poems New & Selected'
