"This is no quaint voice from the Land of Anne. Suffused with our era's geist and angst, which have penetrated to the rural periphery, Bailey is a sharp-eyed, clarion-voiced witness." --Richard Lemm

Confessional, candid, and insightful, Forecast: Pretty Bleak looks at life in rural PEI. These poems explore climate change, work, family, love, and the idea that sometimes all you've got is hope for better weather and favourable winds tomorrow.
