Book synopsis

Poetry. In these spare and elegant poems -- not a word out of place, not an unnecessary syllable -- Diana Hartog turns a perceptive eye toward the stories of seemingly ordinary things, of overlooked moments and long-closed rooms. Whether she is writing about jellyfish, the desert, awkward silences that end a relationship, struggles of creativity, or Japanese prints, her poems are astute and beautiful. INK MONKEY is Hartog's first book of poetry in more than thirteen years, and her patience is the reader's reward. "Give Diana Hartog a subject - monkeys, frogs, jellyfish, or a Japanese printmaker on the Tokaido road - and she will play riffs that dazzle..." - Rosemary Sullivan. Diana Hartog has published three previous collections of poetry - POLITE TO BEES, nominated for the BC Book Prize, Candy from Strangers, winner of the BC Book Prize, and Matinee Light, winner of the Gerald Lampert Award.
