CBC Books has compiled a list of Canadian poetry collections to watch for in Spring 2023. Feminist poems that delve into our obsession with productivity rather than care are featured in the collection. Continuity Errors, written by Catriona Wright, explores the privileging of work and productivity over rest and care from an ecological and feminist perspective. The poems, which were written before and immediately after the birth of her first child, envision the future her son will inherit. The book features encounters with an unusual cast of characters, including lonely cryptids, unrepentant grifters, and persistent ghosts, who provide incomplete answers. Wright questions whether our devotion to innovation is keeping us stuck.
Catriona Wright's Continuity Errors is a captivating book that weaves together snaking moves, sneaking intellect, style, fortitude, and sass. Wright's sharp and often eerie interrogations take readers through a world of cryptocurrency,grunt work, predictive policing, extinction, haute cuisine, billboard ads, smoke breaks, breast pumps, and more. These poems are for our moment of onslaught and bewilderment, as they spit back at the world that has been forced down our throats.
The collection is a testament to Wright's talent for capturing the complexities of contemporary life and her ability to create poetry that is both relevant and resonant. Whether you are a fan of feminist poetry or simply looking for a thought-provoking and entertaining read, Continuity Errors is a must-read.
