Traverse

By George Elliott Clarke

Book Overview

From Toronto's poet laureate (2012-15) comes a new book that is a tour de force in confessional verse. This autobiographical sequence in 980 lines contains 70 stanzas of "skeletal sonnets" composed, astonishingly, in one day and one evening. Traverse is a web of intersecting, crisscrossing impulses, a great burst of imaginative energy and aesthetic reflection that celebrates a 30-year period of Clarke's writing poetry.
