Canadian Book Reviews ~ Elegy for Opportunity

Happy publication to Elegy for Opportunity by Natalie Lim and Supergiants by Kyle Flemmer, both released today by the stellar Canadian Press, Wolsak & Wynn.

About Elegy for Opportunity:

In Elegy for Opportunity, Natalie Lim asks: how do we go on living and loving in a time of overlapping crises? Anchored by elegies for NASA's Opportunity rover and a series of love poems, this collection explores the tension and beauty of a world marked by grief through meditations on Dungeons & Dragons, Taylor Swift's cultural impact, the all-engulfing anxiety of the climate crisis and more.

About Supergiants:

For millennia humanity has looked upwards and traced stories in the night sky, projecting our human wants and desires outward. In Supergiants, Kyle Flemmer turns his gaze in the other direction. What does our reach for the stars say about us? Working with the technical language of engineering and astrophysics, Flemmer reorients the reader within our galaxy.

Both of these cosmically gorgeous collections are available wherever books are bought or borrowed.
