Synopsis

World War: Poems brings a Canadian voice to the Great War, capturing courage, loss, and reflection through verse.

This collection presents a series of wartime poems that move from praise and duty to questions of humanity, sacrifice, and the price of conflict. The verses range from intimate meditations on home and family to broader calls for brotherhood and remembrance. Crafted in clear, accessible language, the poems invite readers to consider the impact of war on individuals, communities, and shared ideals.

  • A mix of voices and scenes, from soldiers and nurses to families at home
  • Reflections on duty, sacrifice, and the costs of war
  • Imagery that moves between the front lines and the home front
  • A historical perspective on wartime experience expressed through lyric forms
Ideal for readers of World War I poetry and Canadian literary history, especially those seeking thoughtful reflections on the human side of conflict.
