Synopsis
John Lent's third collection explores a frieze of past experiences that have their settings in Toronto, Regina, Edmonton, and Vernon. Without dogmatism, without pretension, Lent speaks of the common experiences of Canadians everywhere. He does so with poetry that is astonishingly innovative and a voice that is fresh and unique.The poetry of Frieze contains a tremendous energy under the control of a poet who understands the use of language and the blending of the lyrical and the narrative. Lent's poetry is daringly honest; there is no hiding behind language, no donning or personas or views. Frieze is poetry for everyone who is daring enough to penetrate its art and find the rewards contained in its profound meaning and thoughts.
