Zusammenfassung: | "Travelling The Lost Highway collects the poetry James Deahl has written from 2011 to 2018. It contains themes apparent in prior volumes of his poetry: the poet's responsibility to nature, the necessity and beauty of love, elegies, and the vulnerability, yet surprising resilience, of all life. Central to the book is a series twenty-two travel pieces, written off the grid of main highways in Canada and the United States, that display Deahl's affinity for the world outside the urban centres of wealth and power. His poetry speaks clearly and directly about the human concerns of our current era, of these precarious times. Although not usually a political poet, the collection closes with a section of poems personally responding to the advent of President Donald Trump, an electoral result that, unlike most elections, changed everything."-- |
