About the book

"By turns celebratory and sceptical, Career Limiting Moves is a selection of essays and reviews drawn from a decade of immersion in Canadian poetry. Inhabiting a milieu in which unfriendly remarks are typically spoken sotto voce, if at all, Wells has consistently said what he thinks aloud. The pieces in this collection comprise revisionist assessments of big names in Canadian Poetry (Margaret Atwood, Lorna Crozier); satirical ripostes parrying others' critical views (Andre Alexis, Erin Moure, Jan Zwicky); substantial appraisals of underrated or near-forgotten poets (Charles Bruce, Kenneth Leslie, Peter Sanger, John Smith, Peter Trower, Peter Van Toorn); assessments of promising debuts, and much else besides -- including a few surprises for those who think they have Wells's taste figured out."--back cover.
