Of Love and Drowning is a commentary on the pre-cariousness of human existence, using a variety of real and imaginary voices to explore childhood, love, despair, aging, death and the reaffirmation of life.
Antony Christie’s poetry has been widely published in magazines in Canada, Ireland and the United Kingdom, in two chapbooks and in several anthologies. The Last Will and Testament of Jon Martinez de Larrume is his first full-length collection. He has taught literature, writing and drama in schools and colleges in Ontario and England, has edited the Ontario English Teachers’ magazine indirections and co-founded a small press. At present he divides his time between a farmhouse in southern Northumberland in England and a schoolhouse in Grey County in southwestern Ontario.
