A glimpse of new talent

A pamphlet published by the Writers' Trust of Canada is bringing new poets to the public's attention. The Trust, an organization that raises funds for literary awards, focuses on Canadian writers of poetry one year and of literary fiction the next. Writers must be under the age of 35, with their work as yet unpublished in book form. The annual prize from the Trust helps winners get agents and publishing contracts. To find out more about the pamphlet and this year's prize winners, see A glimpse of poetry, thanks to a slim pamphlet (www).
