The interviews in Laurence Hutchman's In the Writers' Words are an invaluable look into the life and work of several excellent Canadian poets. The second volume brings us closer to the minds of some of our major contemporary poets including A. F. Moritz, Sue Sinclair, George Elliott Clarke, and M. Travis Lane, among others. Worthy of study and posterity, these interviews are a service to readers of poetry everywhere and a vital contribution to Canadian letters. --Paul Vermeersch
