"Wevill has attempted to bring to his work the best of many different poetries: the terseness of Spanish language poets such as Lorca, Neruda, Machado and Paz; the meditative depth and strength of spirit found in Central and East European verse; the violent, often surreal perceptions of his British contemporaries; and the sharp, vibrant images that span the gap between life and death that link him to the essential canon of Canadian poetry." -from the cover of Other Names for the Heart

by David Wevill (Author)
David Wevill's work slowly fell from view in Britain, and indeed the USA, after the publication of 1973's Where the Arrow Falls, although a number of collections appeared in his native Canada: Other Names for the Heart (1985), Figure of Eight (1987), Child Eating Snow (1994), Solo With Grazing Deer (2001) and Asterisks (2007) were all published in Toronto. The newly-published work in those volumes is all gathered here, together with some uncollected poems.
