Full Circle

***2019 RELIT AWARD LONG SHORTLIST***
Full Circle brings together poetry written across decades by one of Newfoundland's best-loved writers. Balanced on the sharpest edge of life, yet caught in the ruthless pull of aging and death, these poems offer keen insights into the way the world was--and the way it ought to be. Throughout, Porter reminds us that change, like life, is a long and circuitous journey, and that the fight for a good life and a just society is never over.
