Inhaltsangabe

An insightful body of work about the human body.

Body Language brings together the work of both established and emerging writers. Anthologist and poet John B. Lee has compiled an anthology of poems and stories arising from insights about the human body

Griffin nominee and Governor General Award winning poet Margaret Avison muses on the body as water. Poet Laureate of Saskatchewan, Glen Sorestad turns his attention to the hands. Others write of the art of the gut, the phantom limb, the beauty of breasts, and the mystery of Napoleon's hand. Nothing is beyond the writer's concern: even podiatry becomes philosophy. As Robert Sward writes in his poem, One Stop Foot Shop, "Truth is, peoples' feet are too good for them."

Between our haircut and the floor, we yearn to know what it means to be human.
