Grey Islands, the (Brick Books Classics)
John Steffler
Deluxe redesign of a seminal book by Canadas former Parliamentary Poet Laureate. Includes new material.
On the occasion of the presss 40th anniversary, Brick Books is proud to present the second of six new editions of classic books from our back catalogue. This new edition of The Grey Islands features a foreword by scholar Adrian Fowler and a detailed and insightful look back at the book and the time of its inception by Steffler himself. Featuring a new cover and design by the renowned typographer Robert Bringhurst.
The Grey Islands is the story of one mans pilgrimage to a remote island of Newfoundlands northern peninsula. Using a broad range of styles, The Grey Islands delivers the bite of raw experience and embraces existence at the edge in all its terror and beauty.
Bent, I circle the building grubbing and rooting. Every shingle and stick I lift yields bait. Things Carm ate and didnt eat, turned to worms. A kind of organic shadow of the man.
from The Grey Islands
Praise for The Grey Islands: [The book] illustrates how the outsider becomes an insider by becoming a supplicant, renouncing the role of saviour and honouring the culture of the people among whom he has decided to make his home. Adrian Fowler, from the Introduction.
