Stuart Ross is known as the author of some of Canada’s most audacious poetry. Long celebrated for his absurdist narratives and gut-punch humour, in A Sparrow Came Down Resplendent Ross confronts more intimate subject matter—investigating the often complex but always powerful connections between loved ones. Surreally punctuated portraits of family members, childhood friends, heroes, mentors—and even himself—are rendered with arresting care. From the cemetery to the playground, and from the punk club to the synagogue, Ross takes his readers on adventures both wild and tender.
