About this ebook:
Why should the art of poetry be a mystery? Quoting over 60 of our best poets—from Margaret Atwood through Patrick Lane to Tom Wayman—A Magical Clockwork reveals the subtle mechanisms that make a poem tick. To share the secrets behind good writing, through discussion and example it explores such key elements as immediacy, movement, persona, image, symbol, line, pattern, metre, free verse, rhyme, tone, and vision—all from a uniquely Canadian perspective. A Magical Clockwork not only guides and inspires, but is a pleasure to read. It is also the official textbook for the Wordwrights Canada online poetry writing course Lessons in Writing the Poem.With massive technological change in this new millennium, many wonder what the next movement in Canadian poetry will be. Some even hoped this book might herald the revolution. On the contrary, A Magical Clockwork offers no manifesto, nor does it 'break new ground'. Believing a wrench is still useful in a digital age, it simply looks at the mechanics of the poet's art and the many ways the parts of a poem fit together. Much of the motivation is personal. For over four decades, I have written poetry myself. As trial and error humbled me, I wondered why I dared to write at all. This book shares what long struggle has taught me—principles I trust will be helpful to others. Some were discovered in solving problems within my own poems; some from analyzing why colleagues' or my writing students' lines read so brilliantly, or fell apart. The rest emerged as I read articles, books, and reviews. The answers I discovered were not the dictates of any one movement or school on what stance toward the world poetry should adopt. Like software, such theories go out of date every few years. Instead of high-tech priests, I searched for tinkerers and technicians—those who could take the hardware of a poem apart and expose its magical clockwork, the trade secrets and tools this book will share with you.
