Best Canadian Poetry 2022

John Barton (Curatore)

Biblioasis, 2023

Selected by editor John Barton, the 2023 edition of Best Canadian Poetry showcases the best Canadian poetry writing published in 2021. "My goal," writes guest editor John Barton of his long career as a literary magazine editor, "was always to be jostled awake, and I soon realized that I was being jostled awake for two-myself and the reader ... I came to understand that my job description included an obligation to expose readers to wide varieties of poetry, to challenge their assumptions while expanding their taste." In selecting this year's edition of Best Canadian Poetry, Barton brings the same catholic spirit to his survey of Canadian poems published by magazines and journals in 2021. From new work by Canadian favourites to exciting new talents, this year's anthology offers fifty poems to challenge and enlarge your sense of the power and possibility of Canadian poetry.
