The Hudson Letter
Author: Derek Mahon
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780916390709
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Out of this absence he writes from lower Manhattan, addressing, in ramble or vigil, his absent lover, his children in London, Auden, Yeast's father, and other cosmic vagrants, "clutching our bits and pieces, arrogant in dereliction". In the eighteen sections of "The Hudson Letter", the gabble of a dockside bar, voices of a recycled Sappho and of an Irish immigrant girl reassuring her mother in Inishannon, and the midwinter, allnight sounds of the City intersperse with the voice of the poet - lively, witty, poignant, elegiac, humane, and thoroughly human. "The Hudson Letter" is prefaced by four new poems in different voices.

Undelivered Letters to Hudson's Bay Company Men on the Northwest Coast of America, 1830-57
Author: Helen Margaret Buss
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 9780774809740
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 548
Book Description
In the early nineteenth century, when the Hudson's Bay Company sent men to its furthest posts along the coast of North America's Pacific Northwest, the letters of those who cared for those men followed them in the Company's supply ships. Sometimes, these letters missed their objects -- the men had returned to Britain, or deserted their ships, or died. The Company returned the correspondence to its London office and over the years amassed a file of "undelivered letters." Many of these remained sealed for 150 years until they were opened by archivist Judith Hudson Beattie, when the Company archives were moved to Canada. The letters tell the stories of ordinary people whose lives are rarely recounted in traditional histories. Editorial commentaries fram, for contemporary readers, the words of early nineteenth-century working- and middle-class British folk as well as letters to "voyageurs" from Quebec. Their stories offer rare insights into the varied worlds of men and women who settled the Pacific Northwest.
