Canadian Book Review (3) ~ This May Be The Year, Named & Nameless, and Mad Dog and the Sea Dragon

Happy publication to This May Be the Year, Named and Nameless, and Mad Dog and the Sea Dragon, published by Inanna Publications. ♥️

About This May Be the Year by Carole Giangrande:

The latest collection from this award-winning poet explores time, grief, rebirth, and recalibration through the lens of the pastoral. In this “birdmind” view of love, loss, and belonging, Giangrande captures the uneasy interplay between the human world and the natural world, offering a poetic meditation on the fragile connections that hold us in place.

About Named and Nameless by Susan McCaslin:

In this new collection of poetry, Susan McCaslin explores the meaning and significance of identity and all that can be found in a name, or, lack thereof. Mixing the personal with the societal, McCaslin explores her own past and women’s continued role in child-rearing. This dreamlike series of encounters with nature and the divine invites deep reflection through re-discovering the familiar. Her joyful wordplay invites us to notice the tiniest details and contemplate the divine.

Mad Dog and the Sea Dragon by Lisa de Nikolits:

In Mad Dog and the Sea Dragon, a darkly comedic modern noir, two sisters navigate resentment, anger, and their complex family history while they try to hustle a dangerous gangster. Fans of Hustlers and A Simple Favor will love this intertwined series of age-old cons playing out in a gritty modern setting.
