Description

Surge Narrows is Emilia Nielsen’s debut poetry collection. Hailed as full of poignancy and precision, this book was a finalist for the League of Canadian Poets’ Gerald Lampert Memorial Award. These ghazals leap along the craggy coastlines of British Columbia and the edges of the boreal forest in northern Alberta where Nielsen worked as a fire lookout. The poems here have been celebrated as stunning in their thematic adhesion.
