Out of Kilter: Poems: 1970-2020

Bernell MacDonald was born in O'Leary, PEI in 1948 and educated at UNB in Fredericton. Here he discovered his love of writing and became one of the celebrated "Windsor House Poets" headed by writer-in-residence, Alden Nowlan. Out of Kilter is MacDonald's twelfth book of poetry and celebrates fifty years of writing, anthologizing his best-loved and most widely published poems. "Being a zoologist, Bernie MacDonald studies moments in life as if they were each a new species to describe. Some are dark, some are light as a kid on a tricycle singing 'diddle diddle dum' and some stare into a blindingwhite light: a field guide to the soul." (Thomas F. Pawlick [journalist & best-selling author: The End of Food])
