Contrasting life in a small Lebanese village (Aitaneat) with life in St. Henri, Montreal, John Asfour’s poems are intensely lyrical. He juxtaposes life in the new world of Montreal, with its Burger Bliss restaurants and St. Henri poor, with the rich life and painful memories of Aitaneat, ravaged by war.
