A powerful new selection of poems by the author of Earth Witch, in three sections: "The sickness that has no name" is a haunting poem cycle exploring Vancouver Island mysticism and a woman's search for herself in a strange world of threat and death; "Mother of all" rediscovers a series of women - real and mythical - who have been a power in the cultures of the world; and "Annie poems" are a tribute to the poet's mother and to the friends, family, and lovers who have touched Cameron's life.
