Jordan Abel
Winner, Hubert Evans Non-Fiction Prize
“By way of a mixture of testimonial vignettes, recordings of academic talks, found text/art, and visual art/concrete poetry, Abel sculpts a narrative of dislocation and self-examination that pressurizes received notions of ‘Canada’ and ‘history’ and ‘art’ and ‘literature’ and ‘belonging’ and ‘forgiveness.’ Yes, it is a book of that magnitude, of that enormity and power.”
