BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."
Together and apart, the poet A. F. Moritz and the artist Ludwig Zeller enact the search for meaning within a shattered mechanical universe. The poem is present as well in a Spanish translation by Susana Wald, who has also conducted an interview with the poet and artist.
Ludwig Zeller is prominent in both Latin American poetry and international surrealism. His books of poetry include Salvar la poesia quemar las naves (Mexico City, 1988) and Tatuajes del fantasma (Mexico City, 1993). Zeller has exhibited his collages in scores of one-man and group shows throughout North and South America and western Europe. Before coming to Canada in 1971, he was curator of the Chilean Ministry of Education Art Gallery (1952-70). Zeller has been an exhibitor at the Venice Biennial (1986), a featured poet of the Rotterdam International Poetry Festival (1987), and the featured poet and artist of the Guadalajara International Book Fair (1991).
