Karen Solie launched to prominence with her first collection of poems,
Short Haul Engine
(2001), finalist for the Griffin Poetry Prize and winner of many other awards and citations. She continued her upward trajectory with
Modern and Normal
(2005), and is now considered one of Canada's best poets.
Pigeon is yet another leap forward for this singer of existential bewilderment. These poems are X-rays of our delusions and mistaken perceptions, explorations of violence, bad luck, fate, creeping catastrophe, love, and the eros of danger. Once again, Solie shows that her ear is impeccable, her poetic intelligence rare and razor-sharp.
