John Reibetanz is a poet of transformation. His poetry is tightly woven through syntax that closely responds to the movement of feeling and thought. He dexterously interweaves his own lived experience with the landscape of the imagination, exploring the metaphysical dimensions of the physical world and the mythic resonances of fundamental human concerns. In so doing, his work reveals the poet's underlying longing to engage fully with the overwhelming abundance of life.
The Essential Poets Series presents the works of Canada's most celebrated poets in a package that is beautiful, accessible and affordable.
The Essential John Reibetanz is the 16th volume in the increasingly popular series.
