African author, Darrell Nkholoma Phiri, brings us, The Epidemic, a stunning pandemic novel for all times. Written four years before the covid pandemic shook the world this book now resonates more than expected. Every reader will relate on many levels.The Epidemic is a political war drama with events based around the fear of a pandemic. Follow three different men from very different backgrounds as they weave their way through their own personal dramas. A politically motivated business man, a Syrian General and a general labourer, all with different motivations and struggles for their survival. The Epidemic follows three totally different men through personal and political upheaval. One, an orphan African boy, come businessman, come politician. Two, a recovering from amnesia, General of the Syrian Army. Three, an unskilled labourer running from his past infidelities. Which one of these three characters do you identify with? Are any of the three of them redeemable as they weave their way through the power politics of a pandemic world that could kill them?

Poems by 4 Canadian Poets:4 Authors: John B. Lee - Canadian - November 24th, 1951 Antony Di Nardo - Canadian - October 2, 1949 Laurence Hutchman - Canadian - July 4, 1948 Richard Marvin Grove - Canadian - October 07, 1953

By & By brings together two Canadian poetry icons into one book. This is a wonderful collaboration that should never be forget. One of Canada's finest collection of poetry.

Antony Di Nardo''s fifth collection of poetry confronts questions of whether what goes missing is gone for good and what it means to be immortalized. Rituals of loss are explored and iterated. Our vain dismissal of the natural world as something that exists apart from us is put on hold. Regardless how dire, there is no lack of wit or humour in these poems. His language has a mind of its own. He writes "accuracy and algorithms are not for poets/... a poet just gets lucky and finds what''s missing." GONE MISSNG is also a survey of "things that don''t belong," steeped in language that surprises as well as juxtaposes the mundane to the ecstatic. Di Nardo''s poetry might revel in the absurd, but it is as essential as seeing without eyes, poems "incumbent on/what reveals/the earth ..." These are poems that renew the plain and simple with imagery that sticks like Velcro to mind and memory.In Gone Missng, Di Nardo''s language has a mind of its own. He writes "accuracy and algorithms are not for poets ... a poet just gets lucky and finds what''s missing."

The poems in "A Breeze You Whisper" are meteors: dense, compact stories created on wings of emotion and myth - more real than reality. They collapse time, merging past and present, resulting in no-time, in all-time. Taken together, the poems in A Breeze You Whisper reveal a journey from innocence to transcendence, expressed metaphorically through the sections: East, South, West, North, and Above & Below. Readers will identify with the universality of Kathryn MacDonald's passion and vision.
