Trade Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. A Near Fine copy of the First Edition with a touch of wear to red pictorial wraps. 74pp. // 'Praised for his darkly psychological accounts of extreme experiences, Jim Johnstone's fifth book of poems explores his most difficult terrain to date: mental illness and addiction. Li…ke Coleridge's opium dreams, Johnstone's narratives in The Chemical Life are hallucinatory, coloured by his use of both prescription and recreational drugs. Returning often to the notion of rival realities"in everything, there is a second state"Johnstone is brilliantly disruptive and disorientating; a poet whose savagely austere forms, electrically precise images and keyed-up rhythms reveal an obsession with the mind-altering properties of language itself.' -- publisher.

Trade Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. A Near Fine copy with a touch of edgewear, else minimal shelfwear with an uncreased spine. Internally clean and free of markings. // 'Mercurial and modern, THE NEXT WAVE is an output-based anthology of 21st century Canadian poetry. Curated by Jim Johnstone, it features 40 early-to-mid-caree…r Canadian writers selected from a diverse range of national and international presses. While THE NEXT WAVE surveys poets from across Canada, its contributors are the product of a global mindset--a distinct generation of writers characterized by the variety of their formal and aesthetic choices. Gathered into an anthology that is pertinent as well as predictive, each of the poets in THE NEXT WAVE is proof of a re-invigorated national literature. THE NEXT WAVE contains over 150 poems from writers who have published exclusively in the new century. Among the poets included are Jordan Abel, Shane Book, Mark Callanan, Dani Couture, Kayla Czaga, Jeramy Dodds, Liz Howard, Aisha Sasha John, Sonnet L'Abbe, Ben Ladouceur, Jeff Latosik, Nyla Matuk, Sachiko Murakami, Michael Prior, Damian Rogers, and Ian Williams.' -- publisher.

Paperback. Condition: New. CBC BOOKS CANADIAN POETRY COLLECTIONS TO WATCH FOR IN FALL 2023What can we remove from ourselves and still be ourselves? Written after a brain tumour diagnosis, The King of Terrors is a treatise on living with illness and the way that language, relationships and our immersion in the natural world can f…ree us from the spectre of impending collapse. Johnstone's poems oscillate between the personal and the public, the clinical and the spiritual, so we're never quite sure what we are seeing, no matter how familiar."There is a moving, fierce intensity to The King of Terrors. Jim Johnstone knowingly reminds us that betrayals of the body are also betrayals of language, 'each bloody / mouthful a sentence fragment.' These are lines of admission, ambition, and harrowing truth, and Johnstone - despite a future only as certain 'as the body // it inhabits' - offers a form of redemption, for the fortitude of the sick, for poetry itself." - Randall Mann, author of Deal: New and Selected Poems"The King of Terrors is a luminous meditation on the otherworld of illness and treatment, contemplating the mysteries of death and the frontiers of mind and body with sharp clarity and radical vulnerability. These mesmerizing, urgent poems admit us not only to waiting rooms and brain scans, but also to the intimate fears that accompany the estranging experience of being unwell, or, as the poet says, living 'between / age and agency.' Haunting, stark, and lyrical, The King of Terrors is charged, as all the best poetry is, with the shock of the mortal." - Sarah Holland-Batt, author of The Jaguar.

Paperback. Condition: New. Infinity Network completes Jim Johnstone's ambitious trilogy which began with Dog Ear (2014) and continued with The Chemical Life (2017). Central to each volume is the struggle with identity at a time of great social change. Justifiably acclaimed for his exquisite rendering of acute states of mind, Joh…nstone explores pressing questions about the ubiquity of surveillance and social media, and evokes, with a powerful intelligence, the neurosis of living in a consumerism-obsessed era. Infinity Network not only attempts to capture the changing ideas of personhood, but also tries to create a new kind of verse to track it-a complex, bold, stark style able to give uncanny interiority to our digital dreads. As our lives descend further into disinformation and algorithmic control, Johnstone has emerged as the laureate of, in Keats's words, truth "proved upon our pulses.".
