Description

Molecular Cathedral is the first ever selection of the extraordinary poems of John Lent, renowned Okanagen-based writing instructor and poet.Lent’s work is restlessly experimental and yet always approachable especially as it remains dedicated to seeking clarities between the poet and the reader. These poems deepen Lent’s legendary status by offering a selection of his dazzling, often genre-defying poems and covering nearly fifty years of Lent’s poetry career. While these poems are regularly unexpected in terms of their luminous play with form they always—in their at once conversational and wildly sensual lyricism—reach for and care about their reader. The volume includes an introduction by Jake Kennedy, “At the Junction of the Eye and Heart,” and an illuminating, wide-ranging, and joyous afterword from Lent himself. Molecular Cathedral is a fascinating and accessible introduction to one of Canada’s most unique poets.

Author Biography:

John Lent is a professional writer, editor and singer/song-writer who lives in Vernon, British Columbia, Canada, in the Okanagan Valley.

He taught writing and Canadian Literature courses at Okanagan College for over thirty years. Jake Kennedy lives in beautiful, unceded syilx territory. Jake’s home city is Kelowna where he works at Okanagan College. He’s the author of several volumes of poetry and is currently working on “Mr. Cho Stayed For Tea”—a collaborative project (with Paul Hong, Paola Poletto, and Ivetta Kang) involving as a source-text a series of mid-twentieth century farm journals.
