Helen Guri

Trillium Book Award nominee Kristen den Hartog (And Me Among Them, Freehand Books) has invited her fellow Trillium 2012 nominees to write guest posts about children's literature for her wonderful blog, Blog of Green Gables. She writes, "Lately I’ve been wondering how my fellow nominees would muse about children’s literature. What books stayed with them from their childhoods, and why?"

In the newest contribution, poet Helen Guri (Match, Coach House Books) shares why she valued The Bunyip of Berkeley’s Creek by Jenny Wagner for its seemingly “nonsensical, incantatory quality.”

TTQ'S TORONTO POETS 5 QUESTIONS SERIES: TALIA ZAJAC

Interviewed by Darryl Salach (The Toronto Quarterly)

The Toronto Poets - 5 Questions Series is a new series initiated by The Toronto Quarterly that is geared to providing the talented poets living and writing in the city of Toronto with a bit of a broader platform in which to explain who they are as poets and what they're writing about these days. The hope is to provide this information to not only lovers of poetry residing in the city but to the casual reader of poetry who might not be aware of some of the names being featured in the five questions series. Ultimately, the hope of this series is to inform Torontonians that poetry is indeed vibrant, alive and kicking ass in our city.
