The Cove Journal
In eight years of writing her monthly column for PEI's entertainment newspaper, the Buzz, artist JoDee Samuelson continues to capture the soft edges of rural life on the peaceful south shore of Prince Edward Island.

Milton Acorn
A biography of one of Canada's leading poets. Traces Acorn's roots in Prince Edward Island and shows that family, landscape, and the troubled shades of postcolonial society were continuous spurs to his creative life. Connects his self-perpetuated image as a working-class rebel, and his peculiar brand of communism, to his employment history and experience of war. His troubled relationships with family and friends, and his ill health, are explored as sources both of pain and inspiration. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
