The Loop - Dan Sanders - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Loop - Dan Sanders - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Winner of the 41st International 3-Day Novel Writing Contest Alan is unsure if he is dead or dreaming, he only knows that he is stuck in a loop. He finds himself being forced to walk along a straight path through an unending pine forest where any deviation from the path causes him to black out and begin again. Dipping in and out of an endless purgatorial walk, Alan relives key moments in his life where he missed the opportunity to learn, escape, and change: The death of his mother, an abusive relationship with his father, and the opportunity to connect with his only real friend, a neighbour he never speaks to named Edgar. The Loop chronicles the life of an alcoholic who is unable to escape his past to explore the ways in which abuse can shape someone into their abuser and the ways trauma can transfer from one generation to the next. How much of who we are is who we are? How much of it is someone else? What if this has all happened before?

Serpentine Loop - Elee Kraljii Gardiner - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

"Writers, like skaters, score the blank sheet and test the edge of inclusion and exclusion.&nbspMost of these poems begin with a word from skating and push off to another topic. Others revisit ideas of femininity, control and language as pattern, or visit the past through movement, or enact principles from the rink such as symmetry, joy, endurance, crescendo and accent, revolution, response.&nbspThe blade melts ice via friction and pressure. I drifted away from skating but the language is imprinted in me, too, a tracing, a line extending beyond the margins." (from Serpentine Loop) These are engaging and poignant poems about life on and off the ice.

loop, print, fade + flicker - Mike Hoolboom - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Pacific Cinematheque Monograph Series was initiated to explore the spectrum of contributions and innovations of Western Canadian filmmakers, videomakers, and fringe media artists. Monograph Number One focuses, fittingly, on David Rimmer, one of Canada''s foremost experimental filmmakers. There is no better way to start off Pacific Cinémathèque''s Monograph Series, celebrating West Coast filmmakers, than with the work of David Rimmer. Mike Hoolboom''s essay tantalizes us with a romantic myth that contextualizes David, while Alex MacKenzie''s interview lets the artist speak for himself. Both offer a unique insight into the art practice of one of the most influential Canadian filmmakers of the 20th century. - Ann Marie Fleming, independent filmmaker and visual artist The most exciting non-narrative film I''ve ever seen ... images become polarized into grainy outlines, like drawings in white or colored chalk which gradually disintegrate and disappear. The film [Variations on a Cellophane Wrapper] resembles a painting floating through time, its subject disappearing and re-emerging in various degrees of abstraction. - Kristina Nordstrom, The Village Voice

Full Magpie Dodge - Lyle Neff - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Full Magpie Dodge - Lyle Neff - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

'Full Magpie Dodge' is about the shiny brightness of modern urban life, its pressures and joys. More-or-less artful dodgers populate its pages, along with office workers, crows, exhausted junkies and jubilant lovers. Intertwined with all their lives is the unforgotten rural past and the still turbulent North: in short, it's a book that takes Canadian life as it is: startlingly robust, enduring, and sometimes beautiful. "There's no messing around with Lyle Neff. He's straight forward, down-to-earth and uncomplicated in a very complicated way that makes sense." - The Loop "There's enough humour, self-loathing, and joie de vivre here to satisfy Bukowski's fans, but Neff's the far better craftsman. If you thrill to what words can do when stacked right, drop 14 bucks on 'Full Magpie Dodge'. Five books down the road, this kid'll be big-league. Get in on the ground floor and grin." - Fast Forward Weekly
