Welcome to Hillsdale!

In his new poetry collection, Gerald Hill invites you to take a cruise down the streets of Hillsdale, learn about its architecture, rehearse its schoolyard taunts and sample its denizens’ favourite drink recipes. Fusing history, geography and autobiography to create a document of life in Regina’s suburbs, then and now, Hill peels back placid suburban archetypes to expose the messy, challenging systems churning underneath.

Spend some time in Hillsdale, and you’ll soon realize that places have stories of their own, chronicles that can be read as deeply as any book, if you know what you’re doing.
