Review Praise for The Bosun Chair:"A treasure-box of Newfoundland lore, collected by the great-granddaughter of not one, but two, shipwreck-braving poets, The Bosun Chairs seamless movement between memoir, poetry, interview and historical document echoes Ondaatjes early genre-blending lyric prose. Deslisle tenderly imagines a family history of the ancestral Newfoundland she never knew."~ Sonnet LAbbé, author of A Strange Relief"[T]he authors delicate language will have you feeling comfortable as you swing from moment to moment and piece together her myriad stories."~ WHERE Edmonton"Poetic linking throughout the book ... reminds us of the gaps in our own identity. In the end, Delisle helps us realize that construction of identity is an ongoing, slippery and deliberate journey."~ Elizabeth Johnston, Atlantic Books Today"The Bosun Chair, with its transparency of process and its artful blend of reportage, poetry, and prose, shines a light on migrations dark sea."~ Susan Olding, The Malahat Review"[The Bosun Chair] resonates with a subtle charm and quiet beauty, and the small outports of Newfoundland indeed become our imagined place, as well as Delisles."~ Suzanne James, Canadian Literature Details ISBN1926455878 Year 2017 ISBN-10 1926455878 ISBN-13 9781926455877 Format Paperback Publication Date 2017-04-01 Imprint NeWest Press Place of Publication Edmonton Country of Publication Canada UK Release Date 2017-04-01 Publisher NeWest Press DEWEY 811.6 Audience General Author Jennifer Delisle Pages 120 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
