"Always Now, Collected Poems of Margaret Avison," encompasses in three volumes all of the published books, from "Winter Sun" (1960) to "Concrete and Wild Carrot" (2002), and is framed by a gathering of uncollected and new poems respectively. When complete, "Always Now" will present all of the poems, up to 2002, that Margaret Avison wishes to preserve. "Volume One" extends from the uncollected poems to Avison's translations of Hungarian poems, and includes "Winter Sun" and "The Dumbfounding." Besides the uncollected surprises, two of them dating to high school days and first published in "Hermes," Toronto's Humberside Collegiate literary magazine, there are the loved and familiar early poems, just as fresh now as they were then, from which certain wonderful lines still jump out: Nobody stuffs the world in at your eyes./ The optic heart must venture'; In the mathematics of God/ there are percentages beyond one hundred.' Margaret Avison's poems have warmed the hearts and enlarged the thinking of two generations of Canadian readers.
