Molecular Cathedral is the first ever selection of the extraordinary poems of John Lent, renowned Okanagen-based writing instructor and poet.Lent’s work is restlessly experimental and yet always approachable especially as it remains dedicated to seeking clarities between the poet and the reader. These poems deepen Lent’s legendary status by offering a selection of his dazzling, often genre-defying poems and covering nearly fifty years of Lent’s poetry career. While these poems are regularly unexpected in terms of their luminous play with form they always—in their at once conversational and wildly sensual lyricism—reach for and care about their reader.The volume includes an introduction by Jake Kennedy, “At the Junction of the Eye and Heart,” and an illuminating, wide-ranging, and joyous afterword from Lent himself. Molecular Cathedral is a fascinating and accessible introduction to one of Canada’s most unique poets. - Häftad, Engelska, 2027

A dazzling constellation of poetic thinking about aesthetics, colonialisms, and popular culture, Jake Kennedy’s The Sound Called The Wings of the Body honours art, poetry, and land as a source of healing, wonder, and magic. A decade in the making, these poems glimpse moments of hope and awe, responding to the “works and days” of artists such as Douglas Cardinal, Masaki Kobayashi, Agnes Martin, Andrei Tarkovsky, John Lent, and Sheila Watson, among many others. The poems also try to listen: to artists, to elders, to animal others, and to the land, particularly the Okanagan valley of British Columbia. Alive to colonial and class realities while also existing in relation to both an absurdist tradition that dismantles and a lyrical tradition that slices to the core of things, this collection brings a measure of optimism in our too-often vicious times. With an impressive range of tone, form, and structure, this poetry creates that “holy moly!” effect.
