Why these poets together? Is this a collection of poetry proposing tolaunch a new school? NO! Or a new-ism? NO! Or a trendy anti-ism? No!Winters in Ottawa are long and dark.and full of snow. In the long, darkwinter of 1997, several of these authors got together at a local pub to talk poetry.Then, they did it again. And again. And again!At times, thr group numbered up to twenty, often, they were fewer. Manyof these poets had national and international reputations. Others were less well known, but dedicated to writing.
