The poetry archive showcases work from some of Canada's newest & best. Many of the writers included here have published chapbooks with Greenboathouse, or full collections with other publishers, and quite a few have joined the fray and participated in one of our summer Reading Series. Many, however, are new writers presenting their work for the first time. Below are a handful of selections drawn from our 2006 submissions, including poems by Kate Hall and Jay MillAr, authors of our final 2 Greenboathouse Books projects (more info).
