In This Thin Rain (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781894469661)

In his first full-length poetry collection since 2004, Nelson Ball, Canada's most renowned minimalist, offers up compressed meditations Ñ ranging from the whimsical to the mournful Ñ on clouds, birds, insects, trees live and dead, water-stained walls, crumbling windmills, and hyphenation. Ball's poems are meticulously polished gems that move through the seasons, finding beauty and depth in the most banal and simple things.
