Here, gathered in one collection for the first time, are Canada's best hockey poems and song lyrics. Included are works by such outstanding Canadian poets as Michael Ondaatje, Al Purdy, Margaret Avison, Don Gutteridge and Lorna Crozier, and lyrics by The Tragically Hip, The Rheostatics, Kathleen Edwards, Stompin' Tom Connors and others. From 19th-century romantic poet Sir Charles G.D. Roberts to contemporary pop songstress Jane Siberry, the authors and songwriters in this entertaining anthology reflect an intriguing diversity of forms and literary expression. In all the poems, ice-or the sport that is played so extensively in Canada upon it-is used to express the ideas, beliefs and attitudes of this diverse group of Canadian authors. For the poetry scholar, for the lover of good music, for the hockey fan, this is a collection to be enjoyed. Indeed, Going Top Shelf is a literary "top shelf" of hockey poetry without equal.
