The Two-Headed Man - Collected Poems 1970-2020 Volume 281

The collected poetry, covering a 50-year span from 1970 to 2020, of one of Canada's most influential writers, literary critics and publishers. His work has been described as a multidimensional oeuvre that includes autobiography, politics, the quotidian, myth, tragedy and humor. And D'Alfonso himself has been called a philosopher who puts on the mask of the poet in order to better grasp the ambiguities of our world.
