Whether considering the Skeena River or the foibles of an onscreen diva, Zoe Landale creates vivid and unforgettable poetry. Shot through with bright colour and sharp natural imagery, this is not a calm, contemplative collection. Indeed, Landale punctuates her own poetic musings with a director's cut, a counterpoint of sly, often acerbic observations on her own lines. A fascinating and intricate work, Einstein's Cat is a collection that is sure to reward repeat readings.
