Ann Elizabeth Carson’s new collection, Laundry Lines: A Memoir in Stories and Poems, is as crisp as linens drying in the Manitoulin sunshine. A born storyteller, Ann takes us on an extraordinary jaunt into history and poetry. She paints her experiences with an exquisite memory of places in Ontario from her youth to the present. By the end we have discovered more than her world, we have learned much about ourselves and who we will become. Ann’s writing is wise, compassionate and lyrical. Always in her work there is an enviable clarity and immeasurable strength.
Gianna Patriarca, poet and author of Italian Women and Other Tragedies, Daughters for Sale.
