    Author Terry Ann Carter
    “Book Descriptions: From the haikukai circles of British Columbia's internment camps to the seminal Canadian anthologies edited by George Swede, Dorothy Howard and André Duhaime, and Marshall Hryciuk, to the avant-garde elements of Gregory Betts’s Haikube, and Gary Barwin and derek beaulieu's frogments in the frag pool, Terry Ann Carter has given haiku a wide sweep in the pages of Haiku in Canada. Featuring over 175 poets, including translated poems from French Canada, her labour over a decade has resulted in a tour de force of history and poetry.

    Terry Ann Carter’s book is a revelation. I can only slap my forehead and cry, “Why didn’t we have something like this earlier!” Fun and involving, a potpourri of carefully researched history, key documents and poems, and personal memoir, Haiku in Canada is must-read for everyone interested in the evolution of North American haiku.
    ~ Charles Trumbull

    former editor of Modern Haiku
