Mapping the Soul: Selected Poems, 1978-1998

The poetry of Stephen Morrissey belongs to the vibrant tradition of Canadian poetry that has evolved through generations of English-speaking poets in Quebec. Morrissey’s concern isn’t merely to chronicle but rather to explore and define his own personal experience so that is becomes transmuted into archetype, meaning, spiritual vision, and soul. Mapping the Soul: Selected Poems, 1978-1998 draws on six previously published books, plus new, unpublished material.
