Through the Cedars
A Book of Poems & Short Stories
by
Jim White
Looking through the branches of a cedar tree, an infinite number of faces are revealed. Within each face is a story. The poems and stories in this book are life experiences filtered through the cedars. From the author of Nowhere to Hide & Other Stories comes a poetic expression that allows deep immersion in the gritty emotional landscapes of modern life. Surprising at every turn, stretching the boundaries of human depravation and climbing to heights of hilarity, Through the Cedars asks readers to take a good, hard look at some of the most beautiful and difficult aspects of being alive. Jim White sees the world as it is. With a sense of humour, a sharp eye for detail, lurid imagination, and nerves of steel, he boldly opens doors on addiction, poverty, abuse, religion, grief, sexuality, the things we do to our bodies to get by, the harsh realities of love and heartbreak, and the ways we find home.
Jim White is the author of Nowhere to Hide & Other Stories (FriesenPress 2022). Through the Cedars is his second book. He lives as a writer, musician, and community activist in Gibsons, British Columbia.
