With essays, reviews, talks on poetics, letters, notes, photographs, and excerpts from interviews, editor Roy Miki has put together a provocative record of bpNichol's always explorative approaches to the material conditions of textual production. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRepresenting a substantial collection of Nichol's critical writing from the mid-1960s up to the year of his death in 1988, \u003ci\u003eMeanwhile: The Critical Writings of bpNichol\u003c\/i\u003e puts him, rightfully, on the vanguard of Canadian literature and critical theory. This collection is essential to our sense of Nichol not only as a writer, but also as a person of exemplary generosity, imagination, and intellectual range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Talonbooks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/29\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780889224476\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.54h x 6.72w x 1.11d","brand":"BP Nichol","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44870626934965,"sku":"9780889224476","price":25.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_9164ee51-dc8c-4642-9b72-26bf54106ea4.jpg?v=1733240782","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/meanwhile-the-critical-writings-of-bpnichol-9780889224476","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
