In this incomparable third collection\, his first in a decade\, Michael Lista returns to reinvent poetry with humour\, pugnacity\, and a deeply singular voice. Splicing Byronic rhymes and Auden’s meters with the twenty-first century irreverence of a late-stage Twitter feed\, the poems in Barfly are alternatingly aggressive\, sweet\, deadly\, and raw with a break-your-heart vulnerability. \nABOUT MICHAEL LISTA \nMichael Lista is an investigative journalist\, essayist and poet. He has worked as a book columnist for the National Post and as the poetry editor of The Walrus. He is the author of four books: the poetry volumes Bloom and The Scarborough; Strike Anywhere\, a collection of his writing about literature\, television and culture; and The Human Scale: Murder\, Mischief and Other Selected Mayhems\, a book of longform journalism. His essays and investigative stories have appeared in the New Yorker\, The Atlantic\, Slate\, The Walrus\, Canadaland\, and Toronto Life. He is a contributing editor at Toronto Life and Maclean’s. He was the 2017 Margaret Laurence Fellow at Trent University and the winner of the 2020 National Magazine Awards for both Investigative Reporting and Long Form Feature Writing. His story “The Sting” is being adapted by Adam Perlman\, Robert Downey Jr.\, and Team Downey into a television series for Apple TV+.
