Breccia by Irene Golas and Ignatius Fay
Image

A new book of haiku and related Japanese poetic forms by Sudbury authors Irene Golas and Ignatius Fay.

Breccia is poetry with impact! Birth and death. Love and loss. Heartache and humour. Emotional and physical landscapes. They’re all in Breccia – vivid snapshots of life and the world around us. Poems that refuse to varnish tough realities.

Breccia owes its title to the Sudbury Breccia, a rock resulting from an ancient asteroid impact. This collection – a haiku ‘breccia’ – results from the intersection of two poetic orbits.

The breccia motif extends through the group of poems about life in the mining towns around Sudbury, Ontario. Breccia…an affirmation for haiku readers…a revelation for the uninitiated.

Breccia may be purchased on-line at lulu.com

208 pages, $17.00 US + S&H + HST
