Desire and love secretly fulfilled

Canadian poet Douglas LePan kept these tender poems of love and longing hidden for over 50 years from all but a few chosen colleagues. Luckily LePan was prevailed to preserve and finally to publish them, an act of incredible bravery for him. To quote a review elsewhere, "LePan likes to charge his writing with intensity. Both human and ordinary, magical and extraordinary, the poems of Far Voyages surge from a writer in his prime." Dr. LePan received the Governor General's Award for his novel The Deserter, and another for his volume of poetry, The Net and the Sword.
