Exploring the contrasts of life in Canada, this poetry collection is divided into three sections: "East" addresses poverty in a struggling province, "And" captures a tumultuous move across the prairies, and "West" reflects on the challenges of adapting to wealth amid drought. Claire Kelly's work blends wit and nostalgia, offering a unique voice that navigates themes of disruption and relocation. The poems provide solace in a chaotic world, presenting a sharp commentary on societal contrasts and personal experiences in a post-apocalyptic context.
