The Alphabet Game
The Alphabet Game | B. P. Nichol
2 posts
bpNichol was one of Canada’s most innovative, eclectic, entertaining, and, yes, enigmatic poets, making startling interventions in the development of poetry and profoundly influencing both his own and subsequent generations of writers. The Alphabet Game: A bpNichol Reader amasses key texts from the very broad spectrum of Nichol’s work, including both classic favorites and more obscure treasures. From the early typewriter poetry of Konfessions of an Elizabethan Fan Dancer and the lifelong poem The Martyrology to the heart-breaking prose of Journal and the whimsical autobiography of Selected Organs, The Alphabet Game traces the trajectory of this wildly imaginative and prolific poet. A great and diverse sampling of his work, this Nichol anthology is an ideal introduction for readers encountering Nichol for the first time, and a much-needed compendium for Nichol fans seeking access to works not readily available.

So sorry Misty! I am playing catch-up, but have had a great time picking books for each letter. All these are books I loved, most especially G and K!
