Keep it all Yves Boisvert
Translated from the French by Judith Cowan
Poetry
Yves Boisvert's poetry is incantatory, energetic, ribald, plainspoken-the work of a doubting, hopeful, angry, and joyous man thoroughly engaged in life. Born in L'Avenir, a small town southwest of Drummondville, Quebec, Boisvert now lives in Trois-Rivières where he is somewhat of a cult figure. An award-winning poet, he is the author of more than twenty books. This is the first time his work has appeared in English. Includes French and English text.
Judith Cowan translated Evenings at Loose Ends (Véhicule 1991) by Gérald Godin. Her short story collection, More Than Life Itself, was recently published by Oberon Press.
