So Recently Ancient: New Poems by John Wing Jr. EPUB
In this new collection John Wing Jr. explores the many faces of irony, self-criticism, and the ambiguity of being a Canadian expat living in the U.S. Humour is at the heart of Wing's concerns but as a professional comedian he knows the hurt that lurks behind much of the laughter. Wing is fearless, always willing to expose his real self both on stage and in this stellar new collection of poems.
“Highly recommended”
- Canadian Materials Magazine
“Wing paints a provocative portrait of comic life...”
- Globe & Mail
“Wing's poetry brims with the fullness of everyday life... it is filled with ironies and complexities...beneath his words is radiance and wisdom...”
- The Windsor Star
“There are poems in this collection that are as deeply moving...as anything new you'll read this year.”
- Don Coles, Governor General's Award Winner
John Wing Jr. is well known as one of the most original comedians around. His radio program Letter to My Wife ran as a 13 part CBC radio series and became a hit album. He is a regular on the CBC's Definitely not the Opera, the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and at the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival. His comedy credits also include a special on the Comedy Network, numerous appearances on the Mike Bullard Comedy Show, and many tours of duty on cruise ships.
