📖 The Scoop
Poetry. MANNEQUIN RISING is the fifth book of poetry from Governor-General's Award winner Roy Miki, his first since THERE in 2006. In MANNEQUIN RISING, Miki describes a world of consumerism, and answers the visual cacaphony of commodities and window displays with a series of poems and photomontages that reflect the uncanny juxtapositioning he sees all around him. The centerpiece of MANNEQUIN RISING is a triptych of poem sequences, "Scoping (also pronounced Shopping) in Kits," "A Walk on Granville Island," and "Viral Travels in Tokyo," where Miki closely observes three different neighborhoods and their mannequins / mannikins / manakins / manikins, almost alien yet familiar beings inhabiting and altering relationships between nature and culture.
Genre: Poetry / General (fancy, right?)
