Her early literary associations with the loosely affiliated Tish group encouraged her non-conformist approach to language and form. Her unique disposition toward language shapes and is shaped by her commitment to exploring and honouring silenced histories and experiences. For her, writing has been a lifelong ethical project, deeply engaged with feminism, immigrant experiences, and ecological issues. Her innovations in the prose poem form have influenced an entire generation (and beyond) of Canadian poets. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSusan Holbrook\u003c\/strong\u003e, editor of this collection, is also a poet, a professor at the University of Windsor, and a pre-eminent critic of Marlatt's work.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 608\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.1 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 30, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51770188235040,"sku":"9781772011791","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/06400ca5360ef0b2b5c4de7ade0431c0.webp?v=1780366694","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/intertidal-the-collected-earlier-poems-1968-2008-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
