Piccolo Mondo
-
online book by George Bowering, Angela Bowering, Michael Matthews and, David Bromige
"It happened in Vancouver. Just before "the 60's" started. A whole new generation of poets, writers and artists shook off the repression of 1950's Vancouver. Piccolo Mondo blurs the lines between the fiction and fact of those days, challenging both the boundaries of narrative and the rules of biography"
