Описание: Al Purdy (1918-2000), known as Canadas unofficial poet laureate, came from working-class roots with little in terms of formal education. He was exceptional in the attention he paid to the geography and history of Canada, and he wrote in a colloquial style and with a rowdy yet sensitive poetic persona that has captured the hearts of many. Purdy wrote over three dozen collections of poems, two memoirs and a novel, and edited four anthologies. He was awarded the Governor Generals Literary Award for poetry twice. He was an officer of the Order of Canada and a member of the Order of Ontario. The League of Canadian Poets honoured him with the Voice of the Land Award, created specifically to recognize his tremendous contribution to Canadian poetry. Beyond Forgetting is a major anthology of the finest Canadian poets celebrating the hundredth birthday of one of Canadas best - Al Purdy.
