How does one define a body of work as enigmatic and encompassing as the poetry of A. F. Moritz? In Living History, Jim Johnstone curates a selection of all new essays that establishes Moritz as a poet who is at once alive to history's possibilities, while also set on enacting history in the present moment, poem by poem. This collection contains scholarly work situated alongside broader essays about its subject's early publications all the way to his stint as Toronto's Poet Laureate, from contributors such as Brian Bartlett, George Elliott Clarke, Paul Franz, Anita Lahey, Ross Leckie, Micheline Maylor, Ben Meyerson, Shane Neilson, Alexandra Oliver, Robyn Sarah, and Karen Solie.
