Disarmament

John Terpstra's Disarmament is a new collection of poems from one of Canada's great literary craftsmen. Ranging over difficult terrain, from Port-au-Prince to the Iroquois Bar, Terpstra is always able through keen observation and playful, thoughtful use of language to locate the moral centre. Terpstra's poems open and close distances between the present and the past, parent and child, one country and another, the old world and the new, teacher and student, presence and absence, the human and the divine.Terpstra, John is the author of 'Disarmament', published 2003 under ISBN 9781894031738 and ISBN 1894031733.
