Wrestling with Cadence: Essays on Writing and Intuition - Paperback

by Dennis Lee (Author)

A career-spanning collection of critical and personal essays from a titan of Canadian literature.

Building and expanding on his previous volume of essays Body Music, Dennis Lee looks back on what has driven him as a poet: the mysterious germinating force he calls cadence. At once a stealth memoir and an essential study of how a poet writes, Wrestling with Cadence is the definitive history of a beloved Canadian poet in his own words.
