Description
Michael Prior's second collection of poetry, Burning Province, is a powerful exploration of family legacy and mixed-race identity. Set against the backdrop of Canada-Japan relations, the poems grapple with cultural trauma and map out complex topographies of grief, love, and inheritance. Through formal and moving language, Prior navigates geographical and psychological landscapes, tracing the impact of historical events on personal experience. The result is a nuanced exploration of the human condition, marked by moments of beauty and impermanence. In Burning Province, Prior finds a way to reconcile past and present, acknowledging the complexities of memory and identity in a world shaped by fire and light.
