Why should the art of poetry be a mystery? Quoting over 60 of our best poets—from Atwood through Lane to Wayman—A Magical Clockwork reveals the subtle mechanisms that make a poem tick. To share the secrets behind good writing, through discussion and example it explores such key elements as immediacy, movement, persona, image, symbol, line, pattern, metre, free verse, rhyme, tone, and vision—all from a uniquely Canadian perspective. A Magical Clockwork not only guides and inspires, but is also a pleasure to read. http://www3.sympatico.ca/susanio/magic.html
