Summer in Furnished Rooms

By Marc Plourde

Summer in Furnished Rooms reflects on the passage of time and breathes new life into people and places that disappeared long ago. From Gregorio Fuentes, skipper on Ernest Hemingway's boat and inspiration for The Old Man and the Sea, to toucans and paradise tanagers undulating in waves of colour on a Colombian wildlife preserve, to the old red-brick Empire Theatre on Ogilvy Street and the Beatles' A Hard Day's Night, showing there in '64, Marc Plourde invokes a life's experience in resonant narrative verse.
