"Shannon Webb-Campbell's Still No Word seeks the appearance of the self in others and the recognition of others within the self. Patient, searching, questioning, and at times heartbreaking -- these poems reveal the deep past within the present tense and the interrelations that make our lives somehow both whole and unfinished. And though Webb-Campbell is political at times, this is not politics for the sake of politics: here, it's a matter of the human heart. Ranging from reflective to angry, from sensual to humourous, her poetry inhabits that mercurial space between the public and the private -- a remarkably accomplished debut collection. Shannon Webb-Campbell is a poet, writer, and journalist of mixed Aboriginal ancestry. This is her first collection of poems. She lives in Halifax"--Provided by publisher.
