Inside Passage
Carolyn Zonailo
Caitlin Press
Vancouver, B.C.
1977
Inside Passage is the first publication in chapbook
form, by Carolyn Zonailo. The poems gather experience from different
locales, from the Island of Crete to the Fraser River of the lower
mainland of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Critical Praise for Inside Passage
“The poems from Inside Passage introduce the work
of a young west coast poet who has already been publishing in
periodicals and giving poetry readings. An exciting debut from
a poet to watch.”
Beth Jankola

careful detail about the world she lives in. |

Publications |
The
Goddess in the Garden combines mystical insight and sensual language
to evoke a timeless meadow where humans and deities play out eternal passions.
|
| |
Reviews |
| She draws on her study of mythology, astrology, and
Jungian psychology, for a seemingly inexhaustible source of imagery. |
| |
Interviews |
| There is a quality in her work which makes all her
poems hers, but Zonailo’s style does differ. Compendium
is a collection of short, lyrical poetry; Zone 5 of prose. Each
book is an extension of her poetic exploration and a separate expression.

Articles |
| Over the years of sitting in Grant's Cafe or the Europa
and talking poetry with Lewis Gretsinger, the questions have been asked:
why write? what are you saying? what are your poetics? |
