On Glassy Wings is a collection of Anne Szumigalski's very best work - nearly 100 poems selected from her many previous books, and a baker's dozen of brand new works.The book includes author's notes on the selected poems, and long expository poems to open and close the work.
On Glassy Wings shows Anne Szumigalski at her finest, as with precise detail and sensitivity she continues to explore a world where myth, reality, spirit and matter, emotion and intellect come together in a mysterious cosmic dance of life.
"The insights are many and startling...Plainly, Szumigalski is the most considerable of Prairie poets."-Globe & Mail
