Gulch : An Assemblage of Poetry and Prose

See all formats and editions

Inspired by the philosophical theories of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, this anthology is a rhizomatic exploration of the current Canadian literary community.

Drawing on the postmodern themes of detachment and disjuncture, the book seeks to create an optimistic snapshot of the pluralities and complexities that constitute the post-postmodernism, or "post-pomo," literary landscape.

Focusing on the topic of fragmentation, the editors selected writing from community artists, professors, literature students, and burgeoning young talent as well as established writers in order to compile a collection that resists the notion of wholeness, privileging instead the multiplicity and diversity found in contemporary globalized culture.

This collection, an assemblage in every right, of poetry and prose bares the innovation and cultural critique of post-millennium Canadian writers, and seeks to expose the beauty of discontinuity.
